Vice President Kamala Harris said the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade deprived American women of 'a constitutional right.'
For more of Robert Costa's interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, watch"Face the Nation" Sunday.
The Biden administration concedes that its ability to undo the high court's action is limited, and that the most direct route to fully restoring abortion access to women would be for Congress to pass a law. For now, the administration is trying to do what it can — earlier Friday, as Harris stood next to President Biden, he signed aimed at helping women seeking abortions, by protecting their rights to medication abortions and their ability to travel to states where abortion is legal.
Costa asked Harris whether Democrats had erred in not acting earlier:"When you look back, did Democrats fail, past Democratic presidents, congressional leaders, to not codify Roe v. Wade over the past five decades?" Harris did not weigh in on whether they should be impeached, but she said,"I start from the point of experience of having served in the Senate. I never believed them. I didn't believe them. It's why I voted against."
