After weeks of anticipation (and to some, worry) from a number of leaked documents, the Supreme Court has passed the overturning of Roe vs. Wade in a 6-3 vote earlier today. This will no doubt send shockwaves across the United States, but many pro-life advocates see this as nothing short of a victory.
In a press release earlier today, Allan Parker, president of the Justice Foundation, noted, “It is time to stop killing children and injuring women which includes ‘devastating psychological consequences.’ Now, in all fifty states, women can use Safe Haven laws to eliminate the burden of parenting, if they voluntarily choose to do so.” He concluded the statement by saying, “This is a great day for America.”
That said, many are bracing for backlash from pro-choice advocates, fearing that their reactions could result in continued protests and unexpected violence.
Parker now joins us to discuss the Roe vs. Wade overturning, and what’s to come from here. We welcome him to the show.
Q&A:
- You see the overturning of Roe vs. Wade as a “great day for America.” Can you elaborate a little further on this?
- Why do you believe the Supreme Court was so hesitant in announcing its decision after documents had been leaked weeks prior? Do you think they just wanted to brace for the decision?
- What does this overturning mean for pro-life advocates as a whole, do you think?
- Are you concerned in the least about what reaction will come from pro-choice advocates?
- What advice would you have for those that are upset by the decision revolving around Roe vs. Wade’s overturn?
- Where can we learn more about The Justice Foundation?
