Not gonna happen. Appointees like Kavanaugh have made that pretty clear.

Kavanaugh voted pro-life so why the concern on his vote? The new list of judges seems very good for pro-life.

Trump’s new list of appointees include…
  • Sarah Pitlyk, a Trump-nominated federal judge in Missouri, has a long track record of opposing abortion, as well as surrogacy and fertility treatment. She’s also claimed that frozen embryos should be considered human beings and that destroying them is akin to killing children.
  • Gregory Katsas, now a federal appeals court judge in the District of Columbia, fought to limit abortion access as a high-ranking official in the Bush administration and has also stated “the right of abortion, which isn’t in the Constitution […] has all these made-up protections.”
  • Stuart Kyle Duncan, a judge on the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals, repeatedly upheld the admitting privileges law that was eventually overturned in Whole Womens Health vs Hellerstedt he argued that some forms of contraception amount to abortion.
  • James Ho, one of Duncan’s colleagues on the 5th Circuit, has used his written opinions to lament “the moral tragedy of abortion” and defend fetal burial requirements.
  • Daniel Cameron, the attorney general of Kentucky (who is deciding the future of the Breonna Taylor case), fought valiantly against the state’s governor to temporarily ban abortions during the coronavirus pandemic because they should not be considered “essential procedures.

Me, too, but an overturn of Roe would not end abortion “rights”. It would simply turn the decision back to the states. You would see a patchwork of abortion laws.

I know that is what former Justice Anthony Scalia talked of, but with the right judges, could they not do away with abortion. The formal decision will be interesting. :

It should have been in the states to begin with. It always amazes me how the feds forget that those rights not granted in the constitution are reserved to the states.

They only remember it when it is convenient. I’ve never heard the left invoke the Tenth Amendment as much as they did when Trump (wrongly) claimed he had final control.

Who gave rights to the states to allow abortions?
 
Is that what you got out of what I said? There is no right anywhere to allow abortions. But the vote on it should have been done in the states and not by the SC.

Ronald Reagan, I think it was, presented such a decision as protecting the rights of the individual. I think the Court would have to use that approach. It would be more lIkely to see a return to a federalist approach.
 
Of course NARAL sees that coming. They always did. That’s why the Dems and their media have spent 24/7 condemning Trump, inventing fake news about him, prosecuting him, impeaching him. This election is about abortion and nothing more. And so was the 2016 election.
 
To you perhaps, but to many of us, the election is about a lot more than abortion, while for others, abortion is not a major issue one way or the other.

Then you’re being deceived. A shame, because all the rest is illusion.
 
Ridge, the issue of abortion is your own thing. Even Trump, for all the conspiracy theories he evokes about the Democrats, is not pressing abortion as the sole issue, or even the major issue, of the Democrats. The latter are devoted, rightly or wrongly, to many other issues, including immigration, climate change, government entitlements and regulations, universal health care, gun control, racial conflict, criminal justice reform, and so on. Yes, women’s rights, including abortion, is part of their agenda, but it is surely not the only part.
