A leaked draft opinion suggests the U.S. Supreme Court may be poised to overturn Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 decision that established a constitutional right to abortion nationwide. The document, obtained by Politico, reveals a majority of justices appear inclined to reverse the precedent, potentially returning abortion regulations to individual states. Legal experts warn such a move could trigger sweeping restrictions in many regions, reshaping reproductive rights across the country. The court is expected to issue a final ruling before its current term concludes.
