Resolutions commemorating Roe v. Wade reversal introduced in Congress
The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Denise Burke regarding Sen. Marco Rubio and Rep. Chris Smith’s introduction of companion resolutions celebrating the one-year anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which reversed the court’s 1973 Roe v. Wade decision:
“The Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs was a major victory for unborn children and their mothers. There is not, and has never been, a constitutional right to take the life of an innocent unborn child. Dobbs was a win for life and a win for the Constitution. With Roe gone, laws across the country can now affirm that life is a human right and ensure women have greater access to the support and resources they need and deserve. Over the last year, we’ve seen many states enact laws that do just that, saving countless lives. We’re grateful to Sen. Rubio and Rep. Smith for introducing these resolutions celebrating Dobbs and the states that have taken critical steps to protect life.”
