About
The "Death of Roe" refers to the now-expected overturn of the Supreme Court's landmark 1972 Roe v Wade 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.
