The Democratic Senate campaign arm’s executive director, Christie Roberts, said Monday evening that the reported draft opinion “has dramatically escalated the stakes of the 2022 election.” She called for expanding the chamber’s Democratic majority “to confirm or reject Supreme Court justices.”

The prospect of Roe’s demise also sparked fresh calls from Democratic Senate candidates in battleground states, including John Fetterman in Pennsylvania, Mandela Barnes in Wisconsin and Tim Ryan in Ohio, to end the legislative filibuster in order to enact abortion rights as law. But there’s almost no chance that the evenly split Senate would nix the 60-vote threshold that’s required to pass most bills.

Dozens of Democrats, including their most vulnerable lawmakers and governors facing reelection in the fall, also took to Twitter to warn of the consequences if the law is rolled back.

“Our work is more important than ever. I’ll fight like hell to protect abortion access in Michigan,” Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer tweeted, pointing to a lawsuit she’s backing aimed at preserving abortion rights in her state.
