The White House announced Friday that the Biden Administration will codify Roe v. Wade, which would allow for legal abortions even in the event that the Supreme Court overturns the 1973 ruling. The Biden Administration made the announcement in a press statement put out by the White House. “The Biden-Harris Administration is committed to codifying Roe v. Wade and appointing judges that respect foundational precedents like Roe,” reads the statement. Corrections*

Roe v Wade was always a horrible ruling plucked from thin air. At least trying through the legal process is how these things are supposed to be done even if the goal is the same.

I see the Marxicrats are tidying up the mess normal God-fearing Americans made of things. All better now, Joe, thanks.

Can they do this on a simple majority in the Senate? I don't think so.

Clyburn - women's right to control their own body? Unless they are raped they do control their body. Do we absolve murderers because of an act of passion?

The pastor of our church will be preaching about the evil of abortion this week. Funny how he spoke of the absolute moral evil of abortion during the runup to the election but failed to emphasize that one side was clearly in support of baby killing and the other upheld life.
During discussions with a couple of fellow committed Christians I was dumfounded that they supported Biden because he character and moral compass were so much better than Trump's. My ace-in-the-hole was pointing out that Biden is an unrestricted abortion supporter who is a massive hypocrite because he acknowledges that he believes his church teachings yet he can't let morality interfere with his service to humanity. then, I point out that Trump is the most pro-life president of my lifetime. Amazingly, they would still say that Trump's sinful past life renders him the poorer choice! Even with this revelation of Biden's intent to expand abortion they will probably not question their choice!

Oh, I don’t think you need to go to all that trouble, Joe. That kind of work would keep you up way past your bedtime. And, with this SCOTUS, it isn’t needed, anyway. Between abject cowardice and being compromised, I’m pretty sure you’re guaranteed to get what a ever your masters want. So, be a good boy, take your pills, and get into bed. Maybe Jill can read your a bedtime story, like Rules For Radicals. You always like that one.

Codify really means make it easier and possible at any term length of pregnancy. Taxpayer funded of course. Available world wide.

with the demcoms the only crime is one committed against them, with other people it doesn't matter, especially if you're black or hispanic, whites and asians are on their own.

Kings and their edicts. We're back to that again. As Ollie North indicated, these people are going to force God to completely destroy US. Have mercy, Lord.
Poster 9, there are none so blind as those who will not see. I feel you; it's almost pointless to talk to them; there as some who just don't want to know the truth. People like them are the ones who leave this earth with a stunned look on their faces.

Soon there will be talk of the new Biden Catholic Church. American CINO's and their grotesque Bishops will embrace it.

I want them to do this and stop hiding behind an illegitimate court decision. Then just maybe Catholics and their priests and bishops will be forced to openly take a side.

the US Bishops are most responsible for this. They should have excommunicated the abortion mob led by the Kennedy's decades ago when they had some influence. Now they are powerless and useless.

The majority of abortions are performed on Black females and yet, too many Blacks just love them the Democratic Party. Hallelujah!

Good. The extermination of the future that is abortion, the slaughter of the truly innocent that these politicians have technically been able to claim is simply a mandate from the "high court" can now be laid directly at the feet of those who write, sponsor, vote to pass and then sign off to enact this crime. If they pass it, and I why wouldn't they, then "devout Catholic" Biden will show his deep Christian convictions by signing off on it. It makes official what they have always professed.

This goes beyond defense of Roe v. Wade. But take one solace, that executive orders can be undone by the next President's executive orders. If not reined-in, though, the practice will lead to having the entirety of our legal code flip-flopping every time the White House switches parties.
Absolute travesty.

This is how "devout Roman Catholics" support their church's principled position AGAINST abortion. Yes, Joe is an ardent Catholic who fully supports even partial birth abortion (which is nothing more than killing the infant struggling to be born and trying to fight off the forceps that are pulling it's body apart. I hope all of you "good" catholic democrats enjoy the reign of the dims.

There is simply no Constitutional way to do this. Unless this is somehow cast as a violation of interstate commerce there is no basis for a federal law that pertains to the establishment of criminal statutes. Only states have this power. Not that it matters to any of these tyrants but the SCOTUS must find this "codification" to be unconstitutional on its face.

Re #22, they’re not talking executive order. They’re talking law. They have the majority in both houses and the presidency. Easy peasy.

What the heck does this gibberish even mean? They talk as if some how magically "codifying" a law will make it impossible for the courts to overturn it as unconstitutional.
But then again, the Constitution is pretty much meaningless these days, and the SCOTUS rank cowards and corrupt, so who knows what the new rules of the kakistocracy are.

#27, I have heard that "codifying" Roe vs. Wade will involve striking down every pro-life law across the country. For example, if a particular state signed a "heartbeat" bill or "dismemberment" bill, they will be overturned.

I don’t think that the President has the constitutional authority to “Codify” a Supreme Court decision by making it a law. That’s within the constitutional authority of the Congress that would have to pass a law to that effect. Once Congress did that, the text of the law would then
be “Codified”.

Do you actually think that this nation can continue when it tells God He is not allowed? Each and every politician who votes for this will be held responsible before our creator as well all of the rest of us.

This to me is the same level of evil as that legislation that Cuomo signed in his state, making abortion legal in all three trimesters. Come Lord Jesus come.

Isn't it neat how the courts and the president with his phone and a pen - e.g. Roe vs. Wade and DACA under Obama and Obamacare under Roberts - can just make laws out of thin air that impact us all. Maybe congress (both the house and senate) can call it a day and just go home.

Guess we have to pray that there are some Democrats with consciences that will vote against this in the House and Senate. Obviously our president will sign it if it reaches him. Sad that our country has come to this.

Abortion should be regulated by the states and should receive no federal funding. Like all businesses it should be self funded. If you can't sustain the business then go out of business.

I'm not a lawyer, but I think what it means in layman's terms is: "We're going to make taxpayer-funded abortion the law of the land, force health insurance carriers to include it with no deductible, and there's not a damn thing you can do about it."

That should make the Feminazis happy. I wonder if they'll consider it worth wrecking women's sports, and finding men in women's restrooms and changing rooms.

#5- Because of God’s gift of free will, mortal man does control his own body and can choose to sin or walk in the light. However, mortal man’s bodies are ON LOAN from God—God created Adam and breathed life into Adam. One of the Ten Commandments is, “Thou shalt not murder.” Abortion is murder. For any individual to condone abortion is to condone murder, to forsake God’s Word. God knows us before we are born; named in Bible before being born: Ishmael Genesis 16:11 - Isaac Genesis 17:19 - Solomon 1 Chronicles 22:9 - Josiah 1 Kings 13:2 - Cyrus Isaiah 44:28 - John (Baptist) Luke 1:13 - JESUS Matthew 1:21. Further, Scripture teaches: “Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and you are that temple.” (1 Corinthians 3:16-17)
#9- Scripture is very clear that mortal man is to not judge others—God is our only Judge. For “committed Christians” to declare President Trump’s character and moral compass being more sinful than Joe Biden’s is sitting in judgment of President Trump; such “committed Christians” have rejected one of God’s directives. “Judge not, that you be not judged. ...” (Matthew 7:1-5)
