-Steve Rupp, President, Missouri Right to Life
The following is from National Right to Life:
WASHINGTON — The National Right to Life Committee (NRLC), the federation of right-to-life affiliates in each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia, praised the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson overturning its 1973 Roe v. Wade decision. Today’s decision returns the abortion issue to Congress and the state legislatures.
“This is a great day for preborn children and their mothers. The Court has correctly decided that a right to abortion is not in the constitution, thereby allowing the people, through their elected representatives, to have a voice in this very important decision,” said Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life (NRLC).
In the majority opinion, written by Justice Samuel Alito, the High Court noted:
Roe was egregiously wrong from the start. Its reasoning was exceptionally weak, and the decision has had damaging consequences. And far from bringing about a national settlement of the abortion issue, Roe and Casey have enflamed debate and deepened division. It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people’s elected representatives.
The decision was due to the justices who chose the Constitution over political pressure and who rightly concluded that there was nothing in the Constitution that would prevent the people’s elected representatives in the states from protecting the lives of unborn children. National Right to Life is deeply grateful for the work of millions of pro-life citizens—the 3,000 chapters and 51 affiliates of National Right to Life who have carried the pro-life message into every nook, cranny and corner of America for decades.
National Right to Life will have a more thorough analysis of the decision available later today.

National Right to Life on the
Politico Article
Regarding Supreme Court
Draft Opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson
Missouri Right to Life agrees with National Right to Life and the lawyers for the Mississippi Dobbs v Jackson case. We wait for the official opinion from the U.S. Supreme Court.
Continue to pray for the Justices and our nation as we await the official opinion of the court.
The following is from National Right to Life:
WASHINGTON – In response to the Politico article claiming to have a copy of the initial draft of the Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson, National Right to Life agrees with the statement of Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch who said, “We will let the Supreme Court speak for itself and wait for the Court’s official opinion.”
