US President Joe Biden. File photoWASHINGTON, May 3 U.S. President Joe Biden said he has directed his administration to prepare a response in the event that the country's supreme court rules to overturn a ruling guaranteeing the constitutional right to abortion. Politico previously reported that The US Supreme Court voted to overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling that guaranteed the right to abortion at the federal level. According to a document by Judge Samuel Alito, the 1973 decision was «ill-conceived and erroneous» and created a right not mentioned in the US constitution. «/>AP: Oklahoma legislators ban abortion «We do not know if this draft is genuine and reflects the final decision of the court,» Biden commented, whose statement was distributed by the White House. We are talking about a 98-page report written by Judge Alito after a secret preliminary vote in the US Supreme Court. The document summarizes the opinion of the majority of nine judges, most of whom were appointed by the US Republican Party and only three by the Democratic Party. The head of state stressed that he considers «the right to choose a woman is fundamental, and the decision in the Rowe case has been in force for almost 50 years.» «The basic justice and stability of our society requires that it not be repealed,» Biden said. According to the US President, he instructed his administration «to prepare options for responding to the ongoing attacks on abortion and reproductive rights in the context of the various possible outcomes of cases under consideration of the Supreme Court».
America is turning into Ukraine. There is not much left. «Thus, we will be ready when any ruling is made,» Biden said. If the US Supreme Court cancels the widespread legalization of abortion following an official vote, then the authorities of individual states will have the authority to establish their own rules in this regard. According to the American media, it is highly likely that at least 20 states, which the Republicans say, will want to restrict abortions by local laws.
