Biden: Arrests possible over abortion ban
US President Joe Biden has warned that some states will try to arrest women who want abortions.
“I don’t think people believe that’s going to happen. But it’s going to happen,” he said.
Mr Biden told women travelling for terminations that they will be protected by the federal government.
He also confirmed there would be access to medication that causes abortions in states where it is now banned.
Millions in the US had their constitutional right to a termination taken away by the Supreme Court a week ago.
Mr Biden said only Democratic mid-term election wins in November would give Congress the power to restore federal abortion rights.
