Supreme Court leak confirms Ruth Bader Ginsburg's prescient warning about Roe v. Wade
Fox News
The unprecedented leak of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito's draft opinion in a key case striking down Roe v. Wade (1973) has sparked a heated debate, perhaps drawing new attention to the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's opinion on the key abortion precedent.
Chief Justice John Roberts confirmed that Alito's draft opinion in the case Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization was genuine – although the draft dates back to February, and it does not represent the current or final opinion of the court. In the draft, Alito strikes down Roe v. Wade, which struck down state laws across the country, and allows states to again make their own laws on abortion.
Should the court indeed strike down Roe in this manner, it might vindicate Ginsburg's concerns about the pivotal decision.
