WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Tim Kaine released the following statement today on the Supreme Court’s decision in June Medical Services LLC v. Russo:
“Four years ago, I applauded the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn a thinly veiled attempt to effectively ban abortion in Texas. Today, I applaud the Court for continuing to uphold a woman’s constitutional right to make her own health care choices. Judges must respect precedent regardless of their own personal views, and the addition of new justices to the Court should never jeopardize basic rights and freedoms.”
