John – Finally!
All these decades of toiling in the vineyards fighting for conservative judges has paid off.
Today's decision by the Supreme Court is a long overdue constitutional correction allowing for elected officials in the states to decide issues of
life.
Roe was Constitutionally unsound from its inception as the flawed legal theory behind the decision gives unlimited power to five unelected Supreme
Court justices. I believe it was one of the largest power grabs in the history of the Supreme Court. Under the Roe theory, almost anything could be a
constitutional right depending on the views of five justices on substantive due process.
The issue of life will now be decided by elected officials in the states, the same way the issue was handled until 1973. Simply stated, this decision
represents a constitutional reset.
I am glad to have done my part in this cause. I also appreciate President Trump's leadership in nominating conservative justices.
On this historic day, I cannot help but think of dear old friends like former Congressman Henry Hyde. He and many others worked so hard to protect the
unborn and today their dream came true.
Sincerely,
Lindsey Graham
United States Senator
