The U.S. Supreme Court plans to strike down Roe versus Wade, overturning abortion rights, according to a draft majority opinion obtained by Politico.
The outlet reports no draft decision in the court's modern history has ever been publicly disclosed while the case was still pending.
"Roe was egregiously wrong from the start. It's reasoning was exceptionally weak. And the decision has had damaging consequences," Alito wrote. Politico cautions the draft was written in February and may have already been re-written. And sometimes justices change their votes. FOX News nor KTVU has independently verified this draft opinion.
