Supreme Court committed tragic error, took US back 150 years: Joe Biden on abortion rights ruling
India Today
US President Joe Biden on Friday called the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade 'a tragic error.'
US President Joe Biden said the Supreme Court has made a "tragic error" in overturning the landmark Roe v. Wade decision that enshrined women's right to an abortion.
"The court has done what it has never done before: expressly taken away a constitutional right that is so fundamental to so many Americans. It's a realisation of an extreme ideology and a tragic error by the Supreme Court in my view," Biden said, adding that the ruling was taking the country back 150 years.

Wade to end constitutional protections for women seeking to abort after 15 weeks, US President Joe Biden vowed to do all in his power to protect a woman's rights in states where they face the effects of the abortion ruling.
He said that the abortion ruling leaves the United States an ‘outlier’ in the world.
