Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said he would not support the idea of mandating insurance companies to cover in-vitro fertilization treatments, a proposal floated by former President Trump last week.
When asked if he would back the proposal, Graham said, "No…no, because there's no end to that."
Trump last Thursday said his administration would protect access to IVF and have either the government or insurance companies pay for the treatment if he's elected in November. |

ABC News "This Week" co-anchor Jonathan Karl pressed Colorado Gov. Jared Polis (D) over Vice President Harris's apparent shift away from "Medicare for All," to which the governor argued it is "not a one size fits all solution," for the health care debate.
Speaking with Polis, Karl played a series of clips from Harris's 2020 presidential campaign, during which she pledged support for "Medicare for All" on numerous occasions before pointing to reporting that her campaign states she is no longer in favor of this policy. |

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) said he is "open" to former President Trump's proposal to have the government or insurance companies cover in vitro fertilization (IVF).
"Well, all Republicans, to my knowledge, support IVF, in the Congress. And there's no state that prohibits or regulates IVF in a way that makes it inaccessible," Cotton said in an interview with NBC News's "Meet the Press." "It is expensive for many couples. I understand that. So, it's something I'm open to, that most Republicans would be open to." |

| Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey (D) poured cold water over the legitimacy of former President Trump's proposal to have the government or insurance companies cover in vitro fertilization (IVF), stating voters cannot "believe anything" he says on reproductive issues.
"You can't take this seriously. I mean, this isn't just a Republican — and by the way, I work well with Republicans — this is Donald Trump, who will say anything and everything depending on where the wind is blowing," Healey said on CBS News's "Face the Nation." "He caught some heat the other day, you know, and so he comes out with a statement that, all of a sudden, he's a believer in IVF. It's just patently false, it's offensive." |

| Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (Hawaii)—who ran for president as a Democrat in 2020 but has since left the party—said Vice President Harris is "not to be underestimated" on the debate stage this month when she will face off against former President Trump.
"I think Kamala Harris has a lot of experience. She is not to be underestimated," Gabbard said in an interview on CNN's "State of the Union," when asked about Harris's campaign team calling Trump a "formidable opponent" and asked whether she sees the Democratic candidate the same way. |

| Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) ripped Vice President Harris for her policy on Israel, calling her a "wrecking ball" for her stance on the country's war with Palestinian militant group Hamas and other foreign policy issues.
"Obviously she has some talent, but here's what I would say on foreign policy, she's been a wrecking ball on Israel," Graham said on ABC News's "This Week." "On Israel, she sat there and listened to somebody call the Israeli government, and people engaging in genocide and did nothing about it." |

| Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the leading Senate candidate in California, said Sunday that Hamas must be "hunted down and brought to justice" after recent news that six hostages, including California native Hersh Goldberg-Polin, were killed this weekend.
Schiff called the news "devastating" in an interview Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union" with Dana Bash. |

| Former national security adviser H.R. McMaster said on Sunday he "would never disparage" someone's military service, when asked about the controversy surrounding the Democratic vice presidential nominee's past remarks about his time in the Army National Guard.
"I think everybody's got to make their own judgment. Look at the facts of the service, which I think, you know, we should always celebrate and thank those who, you know, who serve our nation in uniform," McMaster, who served in the Trump administration, said in an interview on NewsNation's "The Hill Sunday" with Chris Stirewalt. |
