When Planned Parenthood CEO President Cecile Richards recently said she thought “Roe v. Wade was on the ballot in this election,” I hope she was right. As Hobby Lobby CEO David Green observed, “Make no mistake, the vacancy left by Justice Scalia and the subsequent appointment to fill his seat makes this presidential election one of the most significant in modern times.”
Because the HHS Mandate requires employers to provide abortion coverage, Green has worried that faithful Catholics, Protestants, Jews, Muslims, and others who oppose abortion are just one judge away from losing their religious liberty.
But pro-life family feminists are also concerned we’re just one judge away from making our anti-human, slice-and-dice abortion laws even more deadly. If Hillary had won this election, she would have appointed pro-abortion Supreme Court justices. They likely would have favored Planned Parenthood in any abortion case that came before the Court, and would no doubt have kept Roe on the books for many decades to come.
