The Supreme Court is set to strike down
Roe v. Wade, the landmark reproductive rights case that recognized abortion as a constitutionally protected right, according to POLITICO, which dropped a leaked draft of a majority opinion Monday night.
The case centers on a Mississippi abortion law that bans the procedure after 15 weeks of pregnancy. The court heard oral arguments in
Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization on Dec. 1, 2021.
POLITICO
obtained a draft of the
opinion, written by Justice
Samuel Alito.
“We hold that
Roe and
Casey must be overruled,” he writes, also referring to
Planned Parenthood v. Casey. “It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people’s elected representatives.”
POLITICO noted, “No draft decision in the modern history of the court has been disclosed publicly while a case was still pending. The unprecedented revelation is bound to intensify the debate over what was already the most controversial case on the docket this term.”
