'The Supreme Court won't protect our rights. That is up to all of us—at the ballot box, in legislatures, and on the streets.'
wasPlanned Parenthood v. CaseyThe draft majority opinion explicitly repeals a major constitutional right — one protected for a half-century — on the grounds that “Roe was egregiously wrong from the start.” At the front of our minds must be the impact on the lives of millions of women.
This ruling would usher in a dark and dangerous new constitutional order. For as long as nearly all Americans have been alive, we have had a uniform system of rights, protected nationally by the Constitution, the U.S. Supreme Court, and laws passed by Congress. Now the Supreme Court is busily revoking those national protections. On voting rights. Soon, apparently, on abortion rights.
The justices — each the product of a 40-year conservative legal movement centered on judicial nominations — testified thatwas “settled law” . Gorsuch asserted it “is a precedent. It has been reaffirmed.” Justice Clarence Thomas claimed under oath never to have discussed it or had an opinion onwhen it was decided, even though he was at Yale Law School in 1973.
