(Reuters) – California Governor Gavin Newsom stated Monday that his state would propose an amendment that would ‘enshrine right to choose’. This was after Politico published a draft that suggested that the U.S. Supreme Court might overturn the nation’s abortion rights.

“We can’t trust SCOTUS to protect the right to abortion, so we’ll do it ourselves,” Newsom said in a tweet.
