On May 2, 2022, a draft opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization by Justice Samuel Alito leaked, showing that the Supreme Court’s conservative majority is planning to overturn people’s constitutional right to an abortion as established in Roe v. Wade and affirmed in Planned Parenthood v. Casey The draft decision not only attacks people’s reproductive freedom, but also opens the door for the Supreme Court to overturn other important decisions. Alito even mentions Griswold v. Connecticut, which established the constitutional right to access to birth control; Obergefell v. Hodges, which established the constitutional right to marriage equality; and Lawrence v. Texas, which established the constitutional right to consensual same-sex relationships. Each of these decisions are on the line if the Supreme Court overturns Roe. Learn More
