Warren took on Biden for supporting the Hyde Amendment, a law that blocks federal funding for abortion in most cases. She also reiterated her belief that the impeachment of President Donald Trump is still the right path forward.

Published 11:46 PM EDT Jun 5, 2019

“I’ve lived in America where abortions were illegal and understand this: Women still got abortions," she said. "Now, some got lucky from what happened and some got really unlucky on what happened."Poll shows tight Trump-Biden matchup in Texas "Understand this, women of means will still have access to abortions," she said."Who won’t will be poor women; will be working women; will be women who can’t afford to take off three days from work; will be very young women; will be women who’ve been raped; will be women who have been molested by someone in their own family.

She added that other countries, as well as corporations, looking to use that research to build products could do so, with one catch. But that's where she finds herself following former special counsel Robert Mueller's 448-page report on the Russia investigation. Mueller in his report did not exonerate Trump from possible obstruction of justice.

It's an issue that many of the Democratic women running for president are now having to deal with in various ways. Hillary Clinton, the former senator and secretary of state, was experienced and campaigned on being electable due to her credentials. But after losing to Trump in 2016, critics have argued that maybe a woman cannot get elected to the nation's highest office.
