Pro-life conservatives have mixed feelings about President Trump\u2019s nomination of D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Brett Kavanaugh to replace the retiring Associate Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy.<\/p>\n

This will be Trump\u2019s second appointment of a Supreme Court justice. After Trump was inaugurated in January 2017, he nominated Neil Gorsuch\u2014of the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals\u2014to replace the deceased Antonin Scalia. Gorsuch was confirmed by the Senate on April 7, 2017.<\/p>\n

Kennedy\u2019s announced retirement (effective July 31) has terrified liberals and thrilled conservatives. Liberals fear that Kennedy\u2019s replacement will join with justices Thomas, Roberts, Gorsuch, and Alito in overturning the infamous Supreme Court case of Roe v. Wade<\/a><\/em> (1973) that federalized abortion on demand. Conservatives anticipate that Kennedy\u2019s replacement will do so.<\/p>\n

\n<\/span>Liberals are still very much afraid. Nancy Pelosi<\/a> warned that Kavanaugh could destroy Roe v. Wade<\/em> and women\u2019s rights. Former Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards<\/a> stated: \u201cThe balance of the Supreme Court is at stake. We cannot allow it to be tilted against the constitutional right to abortion. The rights and health of generations of people are at stake.\u201d<\/p>\n

Conservatives<\/a> are somewhat disappointed in Kavanaugh, especially because of what he said about Roe v. Wade<\/em> at his 2006 confirmation hearing after being selected to serve on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. Kavanaugh was asked by Sen. Chuck Schumer<\/a>: \u201cDo you consider Roe v. Wade to be an abomination?\u201d He replied<\/a>: \u201cIf confirmed to the D.C.
