The Supreme Court will hear arguments tomorrow on a Mississippi case that could spell the eventual end of Roe v. Wade, the 1973 abortion rights law.

A decision in the case won’t come until sometime next year, and perilously close-for Republicans-to the 2022 midterms. Could a finding by the court which effectively outlaws abortion have an impact on the election? Absolutely.

Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) appeared on WMUR.

“I think if you want to see a revolution, go ahead, outlaw Roe v. Wade and see what the response is, particularly young people.”
Sen. Jeane Shaheen (D-N.H.)
