2019: Oz Said As A Medical Student In Philadelphia He Saw Women Who Were “Harmed For Life” By Illegal Abortions Performed Before Roe V Wade. According to the Daily Beast, “It’s, as a doctor—just putting my doctor hat on—it’s a big-time concern,’ Oz said in the 2019 interview, which aired on the Breakfast Club radio show. ‘Because I went to medical school in Philadelphia, and I saw women who had coat-hanger events. And I mean really traumatic events that happened when they were younger, before Roe v. Wade. And many of them were harmed for life.’” [Daily Beast, 12/7/21]
Oz Agreed With A Radio Show Host That Banning Abortions Would Lead To Dangerous Illegal Abortions. According to the Daily Beast, “When Breakfast Club co-host Angela Yee expressed concern that if Roe were overturned, abortions would continue, but ‘in a dangerous way and it could actually kill you,’ Oz backed that up with his own medical experience.” [Daily Beast, 12/7/21]
Oz Defended Roe v. Wade, Saying He Did Not “Want To Interfere” With A Woman’s Ability To Family Plan. According to Daily Wire, “In that same Breakfast Club interview, Oz not only defended Roe v. Wade as a measure that prevents coat hanger abortions, he also said that he did not ‘want to interfere’ with a woman’s ability to abort her baby, accused pro-lifers of ‘picking fights,’ and suggested that pro-life laws would make businesses leave red states. ‘At a personal level, I wouldn’t want anyone in my family to have an abortion,’ he said. ‘I told my kids this, I mean I love the lives that they’re creating so much that I personally wouldn’t want it.’ ‘But I don’t want to interfere with everyone else’s stuff because it’s hard enough getting through life as it is,’ he continued.” [Daily Wire, 3/4/22]
Oz: “We Should Not Be Creating Obstacles During The Difficult Time That Women Have When Trying To Terminate A Pregnancy.” According to Daily Wire, “He explained that while pregnancy and childbirth should be made easier for women, he also did not want to impede a woman’s ability to get an abortion. ‘I don’t believe that we should be intruding into the private lives of homosexuals and we should not be creating obstacles during the difficult time that women have when trying to terminate a pregnancy,’ he said.” [Daily Wire, 3/31/22]
Oz Also Noted That “Today’s Climate Makes It Difficult For Women To Do What’s Best For Them And Their Fetus.” According to Daily Wire, “Oz continued that he believes ‘we should make it as easy as possible for women to carry a child to term and give it up for adoption,’ but noted that ‘today’s climate makes it difficult for women to do what’s best for them and their fetus.’” [Daily Wire, 3/31/22]
[AUDIO] Oz Said He Would Support The Supreme Court's Decision To Gut Roe v. Wade. According to transcript, “Host: And if the Supreme Court ultimately rules to to gut what would be Roe v Wade as we know it, which is considered sort of the established abortion law of the land, if this current Supreme Court undoes that, you would support that. MO: Very much so, because I support constitutional lawyers and judges, I want them to actually use the Constitution, this miraculous document that’s 250 years of thin paper that’s protected our nation, I want them to use that as their guiding tool not to legislate from the bench.” [Chris Stigall, 3/1/22]
[VIDEO] Oz Said The Supreme Court Should “Follow The Constitution” When Deciding On Roe V. Wade. According to transcript, “Question: ‘Are you in favor of reversing Roe vs. Wade? That you were in favor of Obamacare. You were in favor of red flag laws and you were against high capacity magazines and semi-automatic weapons.’ Oz: [...] The Supreme Court- thankfully, we have six conservative justices. They should actually follow the Constitution, which leaves it pretty clear to me what happens to Roe vs. Wade.” [Somerset Meet and Greet, PA, 2/16/22]
[AUDIO] Oz Said He Was “100 Percent Pro-Life” And “I Do Want The Justices To Make Their Decisions Based On What The Constitution Says.” “I'm 100 percent pro-life. I'm a doctor. I believe in the sanctity of life. And President Trump appointed constitutional justices, which is just what I make any exceptions for rape, incest or mother's life? Yes, the three exceptions, especially the mother's life, you'd never want to put one life in danger for another if you can avoid it. And rape and incest obviously are concerns that many Americans would share. But but other than those three exceptions, I'm 100 percent pro-life and I do want the justices to make their decisions based on what the Constitution says. It is a beautiful document as people understand the history of our country, the importance of the Constitution. They'll realize why people like me. And you feel so strongly about that.” [Hannity Radio Show, 12/23/21]
[VIDEO] Oz Said The Supreme Court Should Respect His Anti-Choice Stance And Should Not Have The Power To Take That Away. According to transcript, “‘We need to, as a nation, make sure the Constitution is appropriately followed and people like me, and you may be in the same camp, who are pro-life have our feelings respected. This is something that should not be taken away from us by judiciary legislating from the bench.’” [Fox News Channel: Fox News Primetime, 12/15/21]
