LONG BEACH, Calif.—The California Attorney General Rob Bonta joined local officials from Long Beach, Calif., to support the current abortion policy established by Roe v. Wade—the 1973 decision that overrode the states and legalized abortion throughout the country—following the leak of a draft opinion by the U.S. Supreme Court majority that signaled a potential overturn of the landmark precedent.
At a press conference on May 6, Bonta expressed his support for the federalized abortion policy and said the reversal of the Roe v. Wade decision would set the country back for 50 years.
