About
The "Death of Roe" refers to the now-expected overturn of the Supreme Court's landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision [W] which made it illegal for states to outlaw abortion. This decision has been affirmed by SCOTUS countless times since, and yet the six "conservatives" now on the GOP-packed bench see no problem in overturning what has been well-established precedent for five decades.

fallout
- 2022-05-04 Can Republicans Stop Patients From Leaving the State for an Abortion? Some Are Willing to Try. Texans flee to Oklahoma: Oklahoma passes a copycat law. Missouri had already drafted a similar law back in March, anticipating this decision. «...the Court has no understanding that a post-Roe world is going to be one where jurisdictions fight each other. [...] if in a state like Missouri, a zealous prosecutor goes after an Illinois provider who has been providing abortions on their citizens, the courts are going to have to figure out: Can a state do that if the provider is completely following Illinois law?”» This is fine with the GOP; they feed on social chaos.
