Fox News Sunday interviews during 2020: on Abortion


Tom Cotton: Roe v. Wade was wrongly decided; let states decide

Q: You're on the record as saying that Roe v. Wade should go. Do you expect that if a Trump nominee has confirmed that she will vote to end a woman's right to choose?

COTTON: I'm pro-life, and my views on this are well-known. President Trump has assembled a highly capable pool of jurists who understand that their job is not to make the law, their job is to apply the law.

Q: But I assume you would support the idea of a justice voting to end Roe v. Wade?

COTTON: I believe Roe v. Wade was wrongly decided because it took that question away from the American people acting through their state legislatures. But beyond that I can't speculate.
