Promise Details
After the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade, Harris promised to defend reproductive rights and support legislation guaranteeing federal protections. While she became administration’s leading voice and backed executive orders expanding travel and access, Congress did not codify Roe.
Why it is broken
Harris led executive and advocacy efforts following Dobbs, but Congress failed to pass Women’s Health Protection Act. The administration maximized executive measures—funding out-of-state travel for abortion access and ensuring military and federal employees retain coverage—but legislative codification of Roe v. Wade never occurred. The promise’s core aim—nationwide federal guarantee—was not achieved, leaving states to define access.
