Overturning Roe v. Wade is a staging post to restrictions on other matters

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : It has taken anti-abortion campaigners a concerted five-decade campaign to get here: the Supreme Court's provisional decision to overturn Roe v Wade.
46% : Third, the draft opinion drives a bulldozer through the foundations of other rights similarly rooted in privacy protections, such as LGBTQ+ rights; even if it adds that abortion is unique because it concerns life or potential life, those all become more vulnerable.
45% : U.S. funding played a part in the near-total ban on abortion that came into force in Poland last year.
43% : They have coordinated and poured millions of dollars into campaigns for restricting abortion in Latin America.
43% : The Supreme Court draft decision has given anti-abortion campaigners new momentum.
39% : More than half of America's women can expect to live in states where abortion is banned or greatly restricted if, as anticipated, next month's ruling is largely unchanged.
26% : Louisiana already has a trigger law in place to ban abortion after six weeks; on Wednesday, a House committee voted for a bill that would make abortion a homicide and allow women to be charged for obtaining one.
20% : But the rise of misogynistic rightwing populism in many places, and attempts to inflame culture wars in the U.K. and elsewhere by Donald Trump's admirers, remind us that there is no room for complacency; 50 years ago, few U.S. evangelicals saw abortion as an issue.
