  • I made a separate thread specifically because this might be a conundrum. (Not to start another screaming match about abortion.)

    "Casey says he will support legislation to codify abortion rights | The Hill" https://thehill.com/news/senate/3483338-casey-says-he-will-support-legislation-to-codify-abortion-rights/

    Whether or not senators decide to write a bill to codify abortion I don't understand how it would supersede the Supreme Court. Anybody here have any idea?

    Technically the SCOTUS ruling isn't through yet, right? So I would imagine it could be codified before that point. 

    Not that it will be. Congress can't get anything done when everyone agrees, let alone when it's a wedge issue

    1 It is not and frankly I don't expect it to be.

    2 Also yes it is a wedge issue. And the best Congress could do is something within the Realms of legal but with restrictions and those are sure to be vague.

    I recall 4 years of trying to Impeach Trump.

    Talk about paying a group of people to twiddle their thumbs.
