On the anniversary of Dobbs, the state of abortion is bad--real bad
It’s been three years since the Supreme Court reversed its 1973 ruling in Roe v. Wade. As Justice Samuel Alito promised in Dobbs v. Jackson, all it was supposed to do was “return that authority to the people and their elected representatives because the Constitution does not prohibit the citizens of each State from regulating or prohibiting abortion.”
But even before the Dobbs opinion dropped, everyone knew that returning things to the states wasn’t the actual goal. The goal was to eradicate abortion everywhere—or to at least make it as inaccessible as possible.
Despite the fact that a large majority of Americans want abortion to be legal, access to abortion keeps getting worse—making this Dobbs anniversary a celebration for anti-choicers and no one else.
The lie about returning abortion laws to the states
Anti-choice activists have been very cagey about not calling for a nationwide ban, as did President Donald Trump when he was running for office. But that doesn’t mean that they don’t want one.
