Post-Roe v. Wade and the 2022 midterms

[Brittain33]

Let’s say that the Supreme Court issues a ruling that allows states to highly regulate or ban abortion and that there is no Constitutional right to have an abortion.

How do Republican Senators in purple and light red seats position themselves? Do they advocate for a federal ban on abortion in all states? Or do they think they will be fine advocating for protecting their state’s right to ban abortion? Or something in the middle, advocating for national restrictions on abortion that would restrict access in pro-choice states but not actually ban it?

I am curious how much they will be pushed to a maximal stance of advocating for federal anti-abortion legislation and how that will affect races.

I suppose we’re heading to “we want to ban abortion nationwide but the filibuster won’t let us, elect more Republican senators.”
