South Bend Mayor and Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg just spoke to CNN's Jessica Dean at an abortion ban protest outside the Supreme Court in Washington.
"I come from Indiana, I understand that people come to this issue differently," Buttigieg said.
"At the end of the day I believe that the right person to make this decision is the woman who is facing that choice in her life, in her health, and if she seeks it, advice from whoever she turns to for spiritual guidance, and critically, whoever she turns to for medical guidance."
He added, "I do not believe that women and their doctors should be overruled by the heavy hand of government on an issue like this where people do have different beliefs — those beliefs are best respected in a framework — the framework that was established right here at the Supreme Court and was the law of the land for as long as I’d been alive that trust women to make these decisions."
