'''''Roe v. Wade''''' (Jan. 22, 1973) was the epitome of [[liberal]] [[judicial supremacy]], in which the [[U.S. Supreme Court]] created a new "right" in the [[Constitution]] for a woman to have an [[abortion]] at any time during pregnancy.  It weakened the legitimacy of the Court, and resulted in a political reaction against it that continued for decades.  The decision caused the death of more than 63 million unborn children.<ref>https://www.lifenews.com/2022/01/07/63459781-babies-have-been-killed-in-abortions-since-roe-v-wade-in-1973/</ref> '''''On June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court finally overturned Roe in [[Dobbs v.

The ''Roe'' decision was issued the same day as ''[[Doe v. Bolton]]'', a companion case, which held that states could not prohibit a physician from performing an [[abortion]] after the fetus has become "viable" if the physician determines that the abortion is necessary for the "health" of the mother, which could include "physical, emotional, psychological, familial, and the woman's age," all of which the Court determined were "relevant to the wellbeing of the patient."
