Based on what I am reading and hearing, it sounds as though the right to choose could be in serious jeopardy. Alito would help overturn Roe v. Wade [Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey, 1991] Alito supports unauthorized strip searches [Doe v. Groody, 2024] Alito would allow race-based discrimination: [Bray v. Marriott Hotels, 1997] Alito would allow disability-based discrimination [Nathanson v. Medical College of Pennsylvania, 1991] Alito would strike down the family and medical leave act [Chittister v. Department of Community and Economic Development, 2024] I hope you’re right about it being overblown, but I’m not so sure.
