Marjorie Smith: Supreme Court's game changer

Since the Dobbs (abortion) decision came down, many tears and much ink have been spilled over the effects of the decision on women and their families. I understand the difficulties experienced by women across the nation, and the efforts by many to try to solve those difficulties. But very little has been written about the substance of the decision itself, and alternatives that the court could have adopted.

One example of a more moderate approach — one that Justice John Roberts appears to favor, would retain a woman’s constitutional right to abortion while eliminating the viability language from the Roe and Casey decisions.
