Cole Reacts to SCOTUS Opinion on Dobbs v. Jackson

June 24, 2022

Washington, D.C. – Congressman Tom Cole (OK-04), a member of the Pro-Life Caucus, released the following statement after the Supreme Court of the United States issued its opinion on Dobbs v. Jackson.

"The Supreme Court's highly anticipated opinion gives America's 50 separate and unique states and their voters the authority to determine their own policies concerning abortion, rather than unelected judges and bureaucrats. Indeed, since Roe v. Wade was decided in 1973, it was immediately controversial and quickly became an outdated decision due to rapid advancements in medicine and science. As a proud defender of unborn life throughout my entire career, both in Congress and in the Oklahoma State Legislature, I am pleased that voters will now have a voice on this important issue."
