Like the notorious Chief Justice [[John Marshall]] who pretended to oppose [[slavery]] while voting against slaves in every case, Chief Justice John Roberts pretends to oppose [[abortion]] while voting in the last few years for the [[pro-abortion]] side every single time, most recently in voting unsuccessfully to block a [[pro-life]] [[Texas]] law on September 1, 2021, in ''Whole Woman's Health et al. v. Austin Reeve Jackson, Judge'' (No. 21A24). However, Roberts did concur in judgment to uphold the Mississippi abortion law in ''[[Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization]]'', though he did not vote to overturn ''[[Roe v. Wade]]''.
