SCOTUS Hearing Suggests Conservative Majority Ready to Overturn Roe, Uphold Mississippi Ban

By Thomas A. Smith

During the hearing in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, Roberts repeatedly asked about the viability line in Roe and Planned Parenthood v. Casey, indicating that he was searching for a way to uphold Mississippi’s ban by discarding the idea of viability while maintaining precedent and avoiding having to formally reverse Roe.

Kavanaugh and Barrett, on the other hand, seemed uninterested in doing so.
