By refusing to take action before the clock struck midnight, the far-right Supreme Court effectively overturned Roe v. Wade.
This isn't hypothetical - our fundamental rights are being snatched away from under us. We must #ExpandTheCourt.

Has your member of Congress signed on to the Judiciary Act of 2021, which would add four seats to the Supreme Court? If not, what are they waiting for?

As Republican Supreme Court justices effectively overturned Roe v Wade tonight, seems like the Judiciary Act, to #ExpandTheCourt, should have a lot more cosponsors than this.

We share the concern—but it’s 14 years late.
In 2007, SCOTUS “circumruled” Roe in Carhart AND Brown v Board in Parents Involved.

Too many journalists (and even most lawyers) fail to understand #LegalRealism.

Abortion rates hit historic lows under Obama. Family planning and education work. Yet forced-birth Republicans push women back into dark alleys to risk their lives and other horrors.
If you're against abortion, support family planning and stop attacking women. #GQP #RoeVWade
