President Biden says the Constitution’s Ninth Amendment contains ‘right to privacy’

President Biden said during a Tuesday speech that the Constitution’s Ninth Amendment contains a “right to privacy.”

Biden made the comment during a speech at the “Restore Roe” rally sponsored by the Democratic National Committee in Washington, D.C.

“There’s a thing called the Ninth Amendment that says there’s a right to privacy. That’s how it was interpreted back then,” Biden said during his speech.

The Ninth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution states “the enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.”

“Folks, if we do that, here’s a promise I make to you and the American people. The first bill that I send to the Congress will be to codify Roe v. Wade and when Congress passes it, I’ll sign it in January,” Biden said. “If Republicans get their way with a national ban, it won’t matter where you live in America. So let me be very clear. If such a bill were to pass in the next several years, I’ll veto it,” Biden said.
