What changed from Justice Alito's draft opinion to final ruling on Roe
1 month ago | By Politico
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito's sharp opinion revoking the constitutional right to abortion is virtually unchanged from his initial draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade compared to the final text of the decision handed down by the high court Friday morning.
Despite fierce lobbying from outside forces to pull back from the precipice of overturning Roe, Alito's writing contains all 10 key passages POLITICO identified in early May as the critical pieces of the abortion ruling.

1 month ago | By FOX News
Editor-in-Chief of The Federalist Mollie Hemingway joins Fox Across America With Jimmy Failla to discuss the Supreme Court overturning Roe V. Wade, and what this decision means for the future of abortion in the U.S.
“What happened with Roe v. Wade was that for 50 years, the right of the people to debate this very important topic was stolen from them, was taken away from them.

Wendy Murphy: Women must fight harder than ever before for basic legal equality
1 month ago | By Boston Herald
As predicted, the Supreme Court dumped a bucket of bleach on Roe v. Wade, rescinding a constitutional right that women have enjoyed under federal law since 1973, and under many state constitutions for years before that.
The upshot of Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health is that under the U.S. Constitution, state government officials, not women, get to decide the circumstances under which women maintain or terminate pregnancies.
It's like letting the government decide whether you breathe.
The court said it didn't matter that Roe was settled law for 50 years. They ruled that Stare Decisis (Latin...
