Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : The practical and not merely theoretical nature of that symmetry became clear during the nearly two-decade interval between Roe's initial recognition of the constitutional right to an abortion in 1973 and Planned Parenthood v. Casey's reaffirmation of that right in 1992.
43% : If Roe was wrong, then decisions upholding mandatory sterilization and abortion would be right.
41% : Coerced pregnancy and coerced abortion were, as I wrote in an article several years after the Casey decision, "mirror images of one another."
39% : Nor is it decisive that a ban on abortion forbids an act while a coerced abortion commands one.
32% : In a Constitution that outlaws slavery and involuntary servitude, is it really enough, as Justice Samuel Alito's draft opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization insists, that "abortion destroys what ... the law at issue in this case regards as the life of an 'unborn human being'"?
