Yet another anti-choice group is explicitly expressing its hope that if President Trump has the opportunity to nominate another Supreme Court justice, the court will overturn Roe v. Wade.
In a fundraising email today with the subject line “Can we outlaw Roe v. Wade in five years?” Family Research Council executive vice president Jerry Boykin asks for contributions to FRC Action, the FRC’s political arm, to help the group in the next Supreme Court fight with the hope of overturning Roe before its 50th anniversary in 2023.
“Last year, we took a major step toward accomplishing that mission by helping to lead the nationwide push to nominate and confirm pro-life Justice Neil Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court,” Boykin writes. If they can get another justice like Gorsuch on the court, he says, “we can finally overturn Roe v. Wade and end abortion in America once and for all!”
From the fundraising email:
Imagine if we could overturn Roe v. Wade before its 50th anniversary, just five years from now.
With a pro-life administration in the White House and a pro-life majority in Congress, victory is closer than ever. Will you help us seize it?
…
Last year, we took a major step toward accomplishing that mission by helping to lead the nationwide push to nominate and confirm pro-life Justice Neil Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court.
With your generous gift today, you can help us take the next step by ensuring that the next justice nominated to the Supreme Court is another pro-Constitution, pro-life conservative, swinging the balance of power to the side of life for the first time in decades.
Once that happens, we can finally overturn Roe v. Wade and end abortion in America once and for all!
