It means that she supports the underpinning of Roe v Wade. It makes it that much less likely that Roe will be overturned.

both of these decisions - Griswold and Lawrence - were careful setups by the left. The underlying laws - in one case outlawing contraception between consenting adults, and in the other outlawing certain sex practices between consenting adults, should have been taken off the books. leaving them there allowed the left to setup cases to use the judiciary to toss them, and set precedents for a whole host of other "privacy" cases - Roe, and soon for full gay marriage.
