MSNBC Legal Analyst: There Is a ‘Good Chance’ Roe v. Wade Will Be Overturned

‘There’s a very good chance if this makes it to the Supreme Court’

EXCERPT:

CEVALLOS: "There is a very good chance if this makes it to the Supreme Court that Roe v. Wade will be overturned. Because we have known since the ‘70s that Roe v. Wade stands on a weak foundational basis. Whether you’re pro-life or pro-choice, Roe v. Wade is really about, do we have an individual, fundamental — do women have a privacy right in the Constitution that overrides state legislatures’ abilities to make laws affecting abortion. The bottom line is, that even if you are pro-choice, the right to privacy does not exist, either in the history or the text of the Constitution, which is why Roe has always been ripe to be overturned."
