[The Hill] Planned Parenthood sounded the alarm Friday night after the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, noting that abortion rights could be decided on the high court based on her replacement."Tonight we honor that legacy, but tomorrow, we’re going to need to get to work to preserve the ideals she spent her life’s work defending. Because this is not an understatement: The fate of our rights, our freedoms, our health care, our bodies, our lives, and our country depend on what happens over the coming months," Planned Parenthood President Alexis McGill Johnson said in a statement.
McGill said the Senate should not consider a replacement for Ginsburg in an election year, indicating that a potential pick from President Trump would likely be opposed to the same abortion rights that Ginsburg championed on the high court.
