Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W. Va.) will vote against his party’s bill to codify Roe v. Wade, the West Virginia Democrat told reporters hours ahead of an expected vote on the measure.

According to a draft opinion leaked by Politico on May 2, which Chief Justice John Roberts has since indicated is real, SCOTUS may be poised to overturn Roe v. Wade.
