Duckworth: Kavanaugh puts Roe v Wade in peril

By Bill Cameron, WLS-AM News

(WASHINGTON, DC) Illinois Senator Tammy Duckworth joined a press conference with other Democratic women of the senate to oppose Trump’s supreme court nomination of Brett Kavanaugh.

Duckworth brought her infant Maile to the Capitol Hill presser, “Well, she’s why I’m here!  If Roe v Wade were overturned, the protections provided by Roe v Wade against things like person-hood amendments, person-hood bills, would actually disappear. You see, if a fertilized egg is a person, you run into all sorts of risks in terms of birth control. IUDs would become illegal. Many fertility treatments would become illegal. I would not have been able to have either of my beautiful children that I struggled so hard for over a decade to conceive.”

But the other side very much likes Trump’s nominee because he admires the late Chief Justice Rehnquist’s dissent in Roe v Wade.
