With Roe gone, abortion rights and access for millions of women in the United States would quickly be sharply curtailed, if not eliminated altogether
notes: “Justices can and sometimes do change their votes as draft opinions circulate and major decisions can be subject to multiple drafts and vote-trading.”
But the 98-page draft is unequivocally clear that the Supreme Court should not have made the broad ruling protecting abortion rights. “Roe was egregiously wrong from the start,” Alito writes. “Its reasoning was exceptionally weak, and the decision has had damaging consequences. And far from bringing about a national settlement of the abortion issue, Roe and Casey have enflamed debate and deepened division.
Republican lawmakers across the country have passed — or are preparing to pass — laws that criminalize, invalidate, or radically limit a woman’s right to choose whether or not to carry a pregnancy to term. Those laws for decades have been struck down in the federal judiciary, but with Roe gone, abortion rights and access for millions of women in the United States would quickly be sharply curtailed, if not eliminated altogether.
