Ari Fleischer argues abortion should be left to states: 'Let the people decide'

{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Fox News contributor Ari Fleischer argued on "America Reports" Tuesday that the abortion issue is an interpreted right best left up to state legislatures after a draft Supreme Court opinion to overturn Roe v. Wade was leaked to the public.
SUPREME COURT SET TO OVERTURN ROE V. WADE, LEAKED DRAFT OPINION SHOWS: REPORT
ARI FLEISCHER: First and foremost, the ramifications on the substance of the issue are a huge victory if it takes place. For the pro-life community and people organizing for decades to try to reverse Roe v. Wade legally. And so that's where I really begin my focus on the substance of what sounds like a blockbuster Supreme Court reversal. On the politics of it, I think is going to be a wash. I think that the pro-choice community is going to get energized more than usual, they’ll say see, we told you, we told you, and when you lose and you are in a negative position, you get fired up. And when you win you say we can relax now. It’s a 50/50 issue for America, with so many passionate people on both sides. I think we have a continuation of what took place on the federal level will shift to the state level. It should be a matter of state legislatures, let the people decide.
