California lawmakers, elected officials and other state figures weighed in on social media Wednesday as the U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments about a Mississippi law that severely restricts when pregnant people can get an abortion, a case that could see the nation’s highest court overturn the historic Roe v. Wade decision that made abortion legal in all 50 states.
“Let’s be clear: Roe v. Wade is in danger. The Mississippi case before SCOTUS today is a direct threat to abortion rights. If Roe falls, 26 states could move to ban abortion. I stand w/ my colleagues to protect reproductive freedom.” - Sen. Josh Becker in a tweet.
