Anti-abortion zealot Bill Huizenga and anti-abortion organization Right to Life Michigan have endorsed Mariko Willis for judge in Kalamazoo’s 9th Judicial Circuit Court which should ring alarms for anyone concerned about women’s health. MAGA Bill’s endorsement begs the question: would Willis follow the lead of Trump’s judicial appointees who were instrumental in overturning Roe v Wade?
Should anyone even trust an answer? Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett all lied during their nomination hearing about what turned out to be their intention to reverse a piece of law in place, unchallenged, for fifty years.
“The Supreme Court of the United States has held that Roe v. Wade, that a fetus is not a person for purposes of the 14th Amendment. And the book explains that,” Gorsuch replied.
“As a general proposition I understand the importance of the precedent set forth in Roe v. Wade,” Kavanaugh told senators. “As a judge, it is an important precedent of the Supreme Court,” Kavanaugh replied. “By ‘it,’ I mean Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey, been affirmed many times. Casey is precedent on precedent.”
Barrett said: “…scholars across the spectrum say that doesn’t mean that Roe should be overruled. But descriptively, it does mean that it’s not a case that everyone has accepted and doesn’t call for its overruling.”
All three voted to overturn Roe v Wade.
What would Willis do?
Vote for Christine Morris so you don’t have to worry.
