The guest list from First Lady Jill Biden and Democratic lawmakers suggests that tonight’s State of the Union address by President Joe Biden will promote both abortion and in vitro fertilization (IVF) — two campaign priorities for the party.
The president is scheduled to deliver his annual State of the Union address tonight at 8 p.m. One notable attendee will be Kate Cox, who was denied an abortion in Texas but eventually aborted her unborn child in another state.
Cox sought an abortion after her unborn child was diagnosed with trisomy 18. An unborn child diagnosed with this disorder only has about a 5%-10% chance to live past his or her first birthday.
Other attendees will include Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine’s guest Elizabeth Carr, who was the first American child born through IVF, and Democratic Sen. Tammy Duckworth’s guest Amanda Adeleye, who is the director of an IVF clinic in the Chicago area.
