I doubt it on the abortion front. I believe the official administration position is that society is not "ready" for an abortion ban. More importantly, actual movement on this issue would motivate the opposition like nothing else, and this is what they hope to avoid in order to keep this a 50-50 nation.

The correct formula for politicians in the modern era: make noise that will please your base and get them to give you money, but don't actually DO anything, because this will cause people to give your opponent money.
