"Thankfully for those of us in Illinois legislators led by elected women anticipated a Supreme Court ruling on Roe and worked to get legislation in place to protect abortion rights no matter what the Court ruled."
This may not be true.
The assumption is that SCOTUS will rule that state's rights will prevail. (Joe Biden himself voted for this early in his career in Congress.)
The most extreme members of the court might wish to go full-tilt against abortion as the murder of a baby extreme. The law of the land.
I have no belief that the Supreme Court Justices have anything whatsoever to do with justice.
By the way, if Democrats chose to do so, they could pass new federal legislation to legalize abortion; this would override Roe vs Wade. Since so many Dems are accepting big money for their votes, it is doubtful that the new legislation would pass.
