Condemning the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey and committing to advancing reproductive justice and judicial reform.
Summary
House Resolution 28 is a non-binding proposal that formally expresses the House of Representatives' opposition to the Supreme Court’s 2022 decision to overturn the constitutional right to abortion. The resolution calls for federal action to protect reproductive healthcare access and urges the executive branch to use its authority to support "reproductive justice" for impacted communities. Additionally, it advocates for reforms to the federal judiciary and the Supreme Court in response to recent rulings.
Because this is a resolution rather than a bill, it does not create new laws or change existing legal requirements for citizens. Instead, it serves as an official statement of policy goals and a framework for future legislative efforts regarding abortion access and court restructuring. Its primary impact is to signal the legislative priorities of its supporters to the public and the executive branch.
