Biden’s Sister Claims Dems More ‘Pro-Life’ Than Republicans In Memoir

President Joe Biden’s younger sister Valerie Biden Owens argued in a memoir released Tuesday that Democrats are more accurately described as “pro-life” than Republicans on the issue of abortion since Democrats stand for “a life in which a mother gets to determine her future and that of her child.”

“Like many women, I harbored complicated feelings on the topic,” Owens writes in her new memoir “Growing Up Biden,” published by Celadon Books. “I’m pro-choice, but I remain convinced that Democrats chose the wrong term for our side of the issue.”

Biden’s sister notes in her book that she sometimes refers to herself as pro-life, regardless of her support for increased abortion access for women.

“We should have been pro-life, for we are the ones advocating for a better life, a life in which a mother gets to determine her future and that of her child,” she also writes, Fox News was first to report on Monday. “Sometimes, I even accidentally say I’m pro-life, because that’s what it feels like the pro-choice position should have been called.”
