Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) is calling on House Democrats to stop making “unnecessary” changes to a bill that would grant extra security to Supreme Court (SCOTUS) justices, saying that there is “a sense of urgency” to pass the bill amid escalating protests.
According to a draft opinion leaked by Politico on May 2, which Chief Justice John Roberts has since indicated is real, SCOTUS may be poised to overturn Roe v. Wade.
“We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled,” Justice Samuel Alito wrote in the majority opinion of the court. “It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people’s elected representatives.”
