Kamala Harris doesn’t want to make concessions to get abortion legislation through Congress: ‘Cannot be negotiable’

Despite the potential for her to win the presidency with a GOP-controlled Congress, Vice President Kamala Harris is adamant that she doesn’t want to make concessions on abortion policy.

“I don’t think we should be making concessions when we’re talking about a fundamental freedom to make decisions about your own body,” Harris told NBC News’ Hallie Jackson on Tuesday.

“A basic freedom has been taken from the women of America, the freedom to make decisions about their own body and that cannot be negotiable,” she later added.

Harris declined to lay out a game plan for how she may try to nuke the filibuster in the Senate and wrangle through codification of precedents first set in Roe v. Wade.
