Big Blitz Posted May 3, 2022 Posted May 3, 2022 The Supreme Court has voted to strike down the landmark Roe v. Wade decision, according to an initial draft majority opinion written by Justice Samuel Alito circulated inside the court and obtained by POLITICO. The draft opinion is a full-throated, unflinching repudiation of the 1973 decision which guaranteed federal constitutional protections of abortion rights and a subsequent 1992 decision – Planned Parenthood v. Casey – that largely maintained the right. "Roe was egregiously wrong from the start," Alito writes. "We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled," he writes in the document, labeled as the "Opinion of the Court." "It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people's elected representatives." https://www.politico.com/news/2022/05/02/supreme-court-abortion-draft-opinion-00029473

No “outlawing” abortion. Having the decision on it’s legality made by men and women who should have made it in the first place If abortion is so popular then what are you worried about ? 2

They are trying to find a last minute switch like they did the ACA - hope that public and State Run Media pressure gets them to flip. They already have compromised Roberts. My guess is the target is Kavanaugh.

Doc Brown Posted May 3, 2022 Posted May 3, 2022 You're going to see a push by blue and purple states now to pass laws that legalize abortion now that Roe vs. Wade is in doubt. The midterms are no longer a gimme for Republicans. 5

They've been preparing for this as the Court went conservative. And so have conservatives with pro life bills in the last 12 months. Especially since November. Edited May 3, 2022 by Big Blitz
