Vice President Kamala Harris praised Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker for his support for abortion during an event Thursday.
Baker, a Republican, was the only member of the GOP at a pro-abortion roundtable discussion between Harris and several Massachusetts elected officials.
A member of the Democratic leadership of the Massachusetts House of Representatives linked the state's role in starting the American Revolution during the 1770s with the state legislature's current support for legal and publicly funded abortion.
State Representative Kate Hogan (D-Stow), the speaker pro tempore, touted abortion expansion legislation enacted in Massachusetts in recent years, including the ROE Act bill in December 2020 and the more recent abortion bill enacted last week.
