RNC panel adopts Trump-backed platform with no entitlement cuts, softer abortion stance
SUMMARY
The Republican Party’s platform committee has adopted a new plank reflecting its alignment with former President Donald Trump. The updated platform softens previous GOP stances on marriage and abortion and promises not to cut Social Security and Medicare. It includes ambitious economic goals like ending inflation and making the U.S. a manufacturing superpower. The 16-page document is much shorter than its predecessors. Key changes include support for state-level abortion laws and a revised stance on marriage, promoting the "Sanctity of Marriage" without defining it traditionally. The platform also emphasizes securing borders, preventing World War III, and cutting regulations hindering electric vehicle adoption.
