Her ruling was identicle to her colleague, Sam Alito. ( as was her record ) A few days before they released their decision an identicle case from another appalent court was decided by the SCOTUS. They had no choice but to conform with that order.
She and Allito have remained friends. She spoke for him at his confirmation hearing for his SC position
Stop spreading untrue information that has been repeatedly refuted

Thanks for your reply.

I don’t see in your reply anything contradicting her relevant actions on the court supporting partial birth abortion (against laws that restrict it.)

When combined with Trump’s past on the subject, it’s a valid concern:

I thought it worth the time to reply to specifics of your objection.

>>”Her ruling was identicle to her colleague, Sam Alito. “

They agreed on the ruling, but for different reasons. You can read the whole decision here:

Alito did not, in his statements, concur with her opinion on abortion or partial birth abortion in her argument. He agreed with her ruling, but for other reasons (”I do not join Judge Barry’s opinion, which was never necessary and is now obsolete..Our responsibility as a lower court is to follow and apply controlling Supreme Court precedent. I write briefly to explain why Carhart requires us to affirm the decision of the District Court in this case.”)

Further, “When Judge Barry has gone on record on women’s issues, it has been to rule in favor of abortion rights..”

Her opinion in this case was pro-abortion and against making partial birth abortion illegal. Alito concurred in the ruling, but not for the same reasons she gave.
