Collins said in a statement shortly after the court’s 5-4 decision to overturn Roe v. Wade that “this decision is inconsistent with what Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh said in their testimony and meetings with me.

At a time when the nation is “desperate for stability,” Collins continued, the court “abandoned a fifty-year precedent.”

Turley tweeted, “That is not accurate. “The justices never committed to voting against generally upholding the precedent set by Roe.”

Claire McCaskill, a former Democratic senator, who claimed that Kavanaugh was a liar, was among many who defended Collins.
