HOUSTON (AP) — The leader of a major anti-abortion group has met with former President Donald Trump, weeks after raising questions about his commitment to restricting access to the procedure. Marjorie Dannenfelser of the Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America group says she had a “terrific” meeting with Trump Monday at his Florida home. Last month, Dannenfelser called Trump’s contention that abortion restrictions should be left up to individual states, not the federal government, a “morally indefensible position for a self-proclaimed pro-life presidential candidate.” Republicans seeking their party’s 2024 presidential nomination have been navigating how to deal with calls for a national abortion ban following the Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade.
