Republicans have consistently pushed for national restrictions on abortion, including former President Donald Trump himself. The 2024 election could give them the opportunity.
SCOTUS overturned Roe v. Wade thanks to Trump’s conservative appointments. Biden is in support of abortion legalization, but is not empowered to enact its enshrinement as a national right.
That’s more of the fault of Obama than Biden, although it is fair to partially blame his inaction since he was still in the admin. Appealing to Republ*cans and “they go low, we go high” has usually been how Democrats roll, but Biden has changed that attitude a decent amount in his presidency while still successfully driving some bipartisan successes.

Biden heavily campaigned on codifying roe in 2020 too.
