SUMMARY
Former Vice President Mike Pence criticized GOP leaders for the 2024 party platform changes on abortion, expressing profound disappointment and urging delegates to restore the previous language at the upcoming national convention. Pence emphasized the need to uphold pro-life principles, calling the new platform a retreat. The platform committee recently approved changes aligning with former President Trump's positions, including omitting specific pro-life language. Pence, who has diverged from Trump on several issues, including abortion, vowed that the pro-life movement would persist in advocating for the sanctity of life and its recognition in American law.
