Answer:

Abortion:

-Democrats: "We believe unequivocally, like the majority of Americans, that every woman should have access to quality reproductive health care services, including safe and legal abortion."

-Republicans: Abortion should be illegal in all cases and the Constitution should be amended to ban the procedure.

Immigration:

-Democrats: Called for fixing the "broken immigration system," including a path to citizenship for 11 million undocumented immigrants.

-Republicans: Embraced Trump's call for a wall along the U.S-Mexican border though was silent on whether to back their nominee's demand to deport all 11 million.

Medicare:

-Democrats: They would not only would "fight any attempts by Republicans in Congress to privatize or 'phase out' Medicare," but would allow Americans older than 55 to enroll.

-Republicans: They would end the health care program for the elderly as we know it, requiring seniors to either enroll in a private insurance plan or face limits on how much the government will pay.
