Bernie Sanders, on July 29, 2015, released a statement on the Republican effort to cut funding for Planned Parenthood: "Senate Republicans' attempt to cut off support for Planned Parenthood is an attack on women's health. Eliminate funding for Planned Parenthood would punish the 2.7 million Americans, especially low-income women, who rely on its clinics for accessible, quality health services, including cancer prevention, STD testing and HIV and basic health services. The current effort to discredit Planned Parenthood is part of a long-term smear campaign by people who want to deny women in this country the right to control their own bodies.” an interview with NBC's Chuck Todd on April 3, 2016, in which he discussed his position on when and whether fetuses have constitutional rights “Well, under our current laws, this is not something that exists.

If you were to take a poll in New England, you would find that three-quarters of the population believes that abortion should be legal in most, if not all, cases; but if you took a poll in states like Kentucky, Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee or Arkansas, you would find that only four in ten citizens are pro-choice.

The debate over legalizing abortion, or making it illegal, probably won't end anytime soon.
