Law professor Teresa Collett commented for WORLD on how the U.S. Supreme Court may decide the abortion case Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.
From the article: “We all learned the lesson in Casey that, you know, don’t count your chickens until the eggs hatch,” said Teresa Collett, a professor at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minn. She’s been involved in pro-life work since the 1980s and contributed to three briefs in the Dobbs case. Collett pointed to past rulings of the three Trump-appointed justices — Amy Coney Barrett, Neil Gorsuch, and Brett Kavanaugh — as a reason to question whether they’d vote to overturn Roe. She also worries the justices could overrule Roe and Casey while including a far-flung health exception that would leave abortion access practically unchanged.
