Roe v. Wade attorney says Trump is threat to women's rights
- 7 years ago
The lawyer who argued Roe v. Wade, Sarah Weddington, said President Donald Trump puts women's reproductive rights at risk. The Supreme Court ruling, delivered 44 years ago, declared abortion to be legal nationwide. Following Trump's inauguration, millions of women voiced their concern on equal rights during the women's march on Washington. "I think everyone who cares about the Roe v. Wade issue and other reproductive rights is very concerned about what will happen," Weddington said on NBC News. Trump has repeatedly vowed to select anti-abortion justices, and is already guaranteed at least one Supreme Court appointment.
