re: #650 blueraven

True enough, but say Mitt won and had a majority senate and control of the house…a bill banning all abortion passes and comes to his desk. Will he veto it?

That law would contravene Roe V. Wade either way. Procedural question…could congress/the President actually pass a law that runs directly counter to established Supreme Court rulings? Obviously the SC strikes down lots of laws, but I’ve not heard of cases where a federal bill simply ignored a previous ruling.
