Warren Asserts Democrats Will Suspend Filibuster to Codify Roe v. Wade

If Democrats secure control of the White House and Congress in 2025, their first legislative priority will be to enshrine abortion rights into law.

  • Sen. Elizabeth Warren announced enough Senate votes exist to suspend the filibuster for Roe v. Wade.
  • Democrats would need a majority in both the House and Senate, and the presidency, to achieve this goal.
  • Warren emphasized the necessity of a 'skinny majority' in both chambers to pass the legislation.
  • The move aims to counteract the Supreme Court's 2022 decision that overturned Roe v. Wade.
  • President Biden has pledged to make Roe v. Wade the law of the land if given a supportive Congress.
