Amid a tidal wave of political controversy following the leak of a draft Supreme Court opinion, Democrats and progressives are calling for the Senate to nix the filibuster in order to codify Roe v. Wade into federal law.

Politico broke the news Monday that the Supreme Court has voted to strike down the landmark decision, reporting that Justice Samuel Alito had written a draft that is an “unflinching repudiation” of Roe v. Wade.

The draft majority opinion, which is not final, says Roe v. Wade was egregiously wrong. “We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled,” Alito reportedly wrote. “It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people’s elected representatives.”

If Roe is overturned, the power to decide whether abortions are allowed would be turned over to the states — and many Republican states have already passed trigger legislation banning abortion.

Frantic to protect abortion access, Democrats are now pushing to eliminate the filibuster, Axios reported Tuesday, noting that anxieties over abortion may drive more Democrats to the polls ahead of the midterm elections.

Democrat Senators Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona have not consented to calls to eliminate the filibuster. In the 50-50 Senate chamber, Democrats need to get at least 60 votes to nix the filibuster and pass legislation codifying Roe.

According to Axios, Manchin blocked the progressive Women’s Health Protection Act with Republicans last month and is committed to protecting the filibuster.

If he were to change his mind, he would be siding with the most progressive members of the Democratic Party, like New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren. Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, a progressive independent who caucuses with the Democrats, also called for the end of the filibuster late Monday evening.
