Overturning Roe v. Wade: Then

In addition to supporting abortion rights in the past, Mitt Romney was content with abortion rights being defined nationally by the Supreme Court. In 1994, Romney said, "I believe that abortion should be safe and legal in this country. I believe that Roe v. Wade has been the law for 20 years, that we should sustain and support it, and I sustain and support that law and the right of a woman to make that choice."
