Joyce Issues Statement on SCOTUS Dobbs Decision

Jun 24, 2022

WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congressman Dave Joyce (OH-14) released the following statement on the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization:

“As someone who spent over 25 years practicing law, I always believed Roe v. Wade was a stretch of legal theory. The Constitution does not confer the right to abortion. It does, however, provide states with the power to regulate the practice as they see fit. Today’s Supreme Court decision is a long overdue victory for states’ rights and the sanctity of life. The power to protect the unborn has been rightfully returned to the people and those they elect to represent them.”
