Pelosi: The Supreme Court 'has slapped women in the face' by potentially moving to overturn federal abortion rights
"This is about something so serious and so personal and so disrespectful of women," Pelosi said.
"This decision is about being anti-precedent and anti-privacy, and has serious ramifications as we go down this path."Asked by host Margaret Brennan why pro-abortion rights Democrats had been "outmaneuvered," Pelosi pushed back, saying, "This is a constant fight we've had for generations — decades, I should say, in my case —in the Congress."
“I have no idea why anybody would make that statement unless they were unaware of the fight that has been going on," she said. “I think they misled the Senate with the intention of getting their confirmation vote, with the intention of overruling Roe," she said.
