Cuomo: Kavanaugh, Gorsuch are 'going to reverse Roe v. Wade'

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) predicted Monday that Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch will overturn Roe v. Wade, the landmark ruling that established a constitutional right to abortion.

“Kavanaugh is going to reverse Roe v. Wade. I have no doubt. Gorsuch is going to reverse Roe v. Wade. I have no doubt," Cuomo said, referring to the two justices appointed by President Trump.

Cuomo made the remarks during an event to promote the Reproductive Health Act, legislation he is pushing that would bolster women's rights to abortions in New York.

Cuomo is also proposing the Comprehensive Contraception Coverage Act, which would improve access to birth control.

But given the events so far in this year, it wouldn't surprise me at all.

I applaud his Contraception Coverage Act! It is sorely needed.

I wish Cuomo would stop his alarmist statements. It is the last thing we need now!

What to do with their bodies.

It’s not about abortion except in so far as women can choose whether to have one.

If they overturn it they are taking away women’s constitutional right to choose.

I don’t think they’ll overturn it for that reason. It’s a fundamental human right which thegovernment cannot take away.
