Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot faced criticism Tuesday after issuing a “call to arms” on Twitter following the leak of a draft Supreme Court opinion suggesting Roe v. Wade may be overturned.
“To my friends in the LGBTQ+ community—the Supreme Court is coming for us next. This moment has to be a call to arms,” the Democrat mayor posted. It’s not clear why she linked the “LGBTQ+ community” with the Supreme Court’s likely decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, which concerns whether women have the constitutional right to obtain abortions.
