I'm glad this bill failed. We Democrats have once again stood up to the Republicans' War on Women, and we must continue the fight to protect women's reproductive rights.
The Republicans are on your side.
I don't think the SC would ever overturn it. They know the cost to republicans ability to win elections the decision would cause.
Since when has legalizing abortion been in the beliefs of most republicans?
Not most registered Republicans, but most GOP politicians. Republican-appointed justices handed us Roe v. Wade, and the current SCOTUS, though it is mostly Republican appointees, won't overturn it. The GOP controlled all branches of government a decade ago and did nothing then too.
Roe is probably gone if the GOP wins the presidency in 2016. I don't see how Ginsburg makes it through 2020, and you can probably get past the Senate with a Huntsman-type - clearly pro-life, but otherwise quite moderate.
