Reactions to leaked U.S. Supreme Court draft opinion in pending case regarding abortion.
Senator Majority Leader Chuck Schumer: "This is a dark and disturbing morning for America." He adds: "Now that the Court is poised to strike down Roe, it is my intention for the Senate to hold a vote on legislation to codify the right to an abortion in law."
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell: "Liberals want to rip the blindfold off Lady Justice...Never before in modern history has an internal draft been leaked to the public while the justices were still deciding a case...Whoever committed this lawless act knew exactly what it could bring about."
President Biden: "If this decision holds, it's really quite a radical decision...I think the codification of Roe makes a lot of sense."
