President backs filibuster reform:Biden backs change to filibuster rules to codify abortion and privacy rights into lawWhat does it mean to codify Roe v. Wade? To codify something means to “arrange laws or rules into a systematic code,”according to Cornell Law’s Legal Information Institute. When lawmakers say they want to “codify Roe” it means they want inscribe the abortion rights the ruling once protected into federal law.
The federal law would supersede any anti-abortion laws passed by state legislatures.
Senate Democrats introduced a bill codifying Roe after the leaked draft in May. The Women’s Health Protection Act would have legalized abortion nationwide. It failed, as expected.
All 50 Republican senators and one Democratic senator, Joe Manchin of West Virginia, said they opposed the bill, which couldn’t clear a filibuster and advance to a final vote, USA TODAY reported.
