Why does Joe Biden not legalize abortion?

Kamala Harris is running for president, stating that she will support a bill to legalise abortion in the US and override the decision of the supreme court. But why, if the democrats with Joe Biden are in power now, don't they already do that?

No Ban on Fracking: Kamala Harris Doubles Down on Fossil Fuels

https://www.democracynow.org/2024/8/30/kamala_harris_fracking_ban_climate_crisis

In her first major interview since replacing Joe Biden on the ballot, Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris was questioned about her shifting statements on fracking, which has been linked to a surge in methane gas emissions over the past decade. Harris, who has previously made comments opposing fracking, vowed not to ban it if elected. The vice president went on to highlight the Biden-Harris administration’s environmental record, which activists have criticized for vastly expanding oil production rather than drawing down the country’s reliance on fossil fuels. “The data is telling us that what Kamala Harris said about fracking — that we can do it without dealing with reducing the supply of fossil fuels — it’s just not borne out by the numbers,” explains The Lever’s David Sirota, who adds, “Ultimately, consequences for that will be on the United States, for the entire world.”

Harris vs Trump: Who is worse for Gaza?

https://thecradle.co/articles-id/26513

The US presidential election is a toss-up between a ‘soft-on-Palestine’ Democrat whose boss has armed Israel’s genocide and an unabashedly pro-Israel Republican who doesn’t like war or war budgets.
