The fire that was ignited by the Supreme Court's leaked draft opinion is in

full blaze, including across the Sunday political talk shows. Republican

Senator Ted Cruz told Fox News if Roe versus Wade is overturned, it's best to

let individual states decide whether to ban abortions. If in fact the court

indeed, Mitch McConnell, the Republican Senate majority leader told USA Today

over the weekend that a national law banning abortion is possible if

Republicans get power. Here's Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar, a Democrat on ABC's

a politician? Should it be Ted Cruz making this decision or a woman and her

family? Where are women's equal? The Senate is planning to vote on Wednesday on

legislation that would codify abortion rights into federal law. Any federal

abortion law would need 60 votes to enshrine it. And that's highly unlikely

given the 50 50 split in the Senate. Meaning abortion laws would be left up to
