ABC News reports:
Donald Trump’s top advisers are planning to overhaul and shorten the Republican Party’s platform so that it will be “in line” with the former president’s “vision for America’s future,” according to a memo sent to the party’s platform committee that was obtained by ABC News.
The memo comes as some more socially conservative RNC members — along with some anti-abortion groups — have expressed concern that the platform this cycle might adopt Trump’s stance on reproductive rights, which would lift the call for a 20-week federal abortion ban that is part of the current platform’s language.
The RNC’s 2016 platform, which was approved again in 2020 – both times with Trump at the helm of the party – is over 60 pages long.
Read the full article.
In another sign of Donald J. Trump’s grip on the Republican Party, his team wants the party’s platform to be a succinct pro-Trump document, not an “unnecessarily verbose treatise.”
The party’s last platform was in 2016. They didn’t write one in 2020. https://t.co/AZWzdUrK4T

Credible rumors are that some within the GOP want to weaken the 100% pro-life platform of the Republican Party, harming our chances of electing pro-life champions who will help us abolish abortion. We need your help to keep this from happening! https://t.co/hMdm4LW5pq pic.twitter.com/QtFR8HxYw1
