On September 16, 2022, a political cartoon by Dave Whamond illustrates Sen. Lindsey Graham's recent proposal for a nationwide 15-week abortion ban as an own goal in soccer. The image shows Graham in uniform running away from a goal where the ball labeled Abortion Ban has entered the net. Other figures labeled BIP appear tangled inside. The cartoon responds to Graham's surprise legislation that stunned fellow Republicans and provided Democrats an issue for the midterms. McConnell and others had avoided the topic to focus on other messages.
