Supreme Court overturns Roe and Casey

“In a 5-4 opinion, the high court overruled the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that struck down all state abortion bans and legalized the procedure throughout the country. The justices also invalidated the 1992 Planned Parenthood v. Casey opinion that affirmed Roe.” - BPNews

The decision was either 6-3 or 5-4, depending on how you want to count the votes; Roberts concurring opinion. Now: Who was the President who nominated 3 Justices who voted with the majority?

This doesn’t eliminate abortion, it throws it to the states to decide. Alito’s conclusion references the 10th amendment as the impetus to take out of federal hands. Good that, in half the states, abortion will be eliminated, bad news that the other states can kill the child any time during the pregnancy.
