Welcome to Tuesday, May 3rd, influencers...
A leaked Supreme Court draft opinion would overturn Roe v. Wade.
Politico has reportedly obtained an initial draft majority opinion written by Justice Samuel Alito, which indicates a majority of the Supreme Court justices support overturning the landmark 1973 case Roe v. Wade, which affirmed the legality of a woman’s right to an abortion.
Alito argues that Roe was “egregiously wrong” from the start and that abortion rights should return to the states. Read the entire 98-page draft here ([link removed]) .
Without Roe, the constitutional right to obtain an abortion would be gone.
However, ending Roe wouldn’t end abortion – or the fight over abortion – in America. Rather, a repeal of the landmark decision would shift the battle from federal to state courts. States have already begun to pass stricter abortion laws in Oklahoma, Florida, Texas, and elsewhere ahead of the official SCOTUS decision.

** Biden Asks for $33B in Aid for Ukraine - Are You In Favor?
------------------------------------------------------------
President Joe Biden on Thursday announced a new request for Congress to provide $33 billion in additional funding for Ukraine’s security and humanitarian needs arising from Russia’s war of aggression. Biden said, “The cost of this fight is not cheap, but caving to aggression is going to be more costly if we allow it to happen. We either back the Ukrainian people as they defend their country or we stand by as the Russians continue their atrocities and aggression in Ukraine."
