Norah O’Donnell Had An Inflammatory Question On Abortion For Tim Walz
HuffPost
The Minnesota governor pushed back on the question's framing and defended his state's record on abortion legislation.
CBS News host Norah O’Donnell confronted Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) with a blunt question on abortion rights during the vice presidential debate between Walz and Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) Tuesday night.
“After Roe v. Wade was overturned, you signed a bill into law that made Minnesota one of the least restrictive states in the nation when it comes to abortion,” O’Donnell began.
“Former President Trump said in the last debate that you believe abortion in the ninth month is ‘absolutely fine.’ Yes or no?”
Walz pushed back on the question’s framing, saying, “That’s not what the bill says.”
He then pivoted to stress the importance of preserving patients’ and doctors’ ability to make their own reproductive health decisions.
