Republican Party Adopts New Platform, Embracing Trump's Views on Abortion and Same-Sex Marriage

  • last month
The Republican National Committee's platform committee adopted a new party platform that aligns more closely with former President Donald Trump's views. The new platform softens the GOP's previous stances on abortion and same-sex marriage. It now supports letting states decide their own abortion laws and promotes a "culture that values the sanctity of marriage." Other promises in the new platform include securing the border, cutting regulations on electric vehicles, and "preventing World War Three." The platform shifts the party further toward Trump's nationalist and populist stances as he appears poised to become the 2024 Republican nominee again.
