Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) is talking about a constitutional right I don't recall from the last time I looked at the American Constitution:
One of the most important issues that needs to be addressed by you is the constitutional right to privacy. I'm concerned by a trend on the court to limit this right and thereby to curtail the autonomy that we have fought for and achieved . . . It would be very difficult . . . for me to vote to confirm someone whom I knew would overturn Roe v. Wade, because I remember . . . what it was like when abortion was illegal in America.
Did I miss an entire Constitutional Amendment recently? Did they actually add the "right to privacy" to the Constitution? I'm confused.
