RonJohn on Roe "the political ramifications of this thing are being overstated.” “In Wisconsin, it’s like 50/50. It’s just never been an issue for me in Wisconsin,” Johnson said. "This will probably be the first time it will come up at all.” https://t.co/pMVTHF56UT — PolitiTweet.org

Warnock suggests Dems should explore rules change vote if codifying Roe fails “Our responsibility as legislators is to do everything we can to pass" it, he said. "No Senate procedure or Senate rule is more important than people’s constitutional rights.” https://t.co/pMVTHF56UT — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans are playing down the ramifications of Roe. NH Senate President Morse is defending 24-week ban in NH and says “Maggie Hassan is the only one out of touch when she champions late term and partial birth abortions" — PolitiTweet.org

Hassan says things are even more dire in New Hampshire, where there is no Roe codification “If my opponents get this seat, they will support the kind of national abortion ban that’s now being talked about,” Hassan warns. “There are no protections in New Hampshire right now.” — PolitiTweet.org

Cortez Masto says Laxalt "would also work with some of my Republican colleagues who right now are planning legislation to restrict abortion across this country if they had the ability to do so." Nevada overwhelmingly pro-abortion rights; only top battleground that codified Roe — PolitiTweet.org

New: Look to Nevada + New Hampshire to see if Democrats' can turn the Roe decision against Republicans. Sens. Cortez Masto and Hassan leaning into issue, warning in interviews they will be replaced by Republicans who vote for federal abortion restrictions https://t.co/pMVTHF56UT — PolitiTweet.org

This is as much to bolster Senate Democratic incumbents as it is anything else. Besides Johnson in Wisconsin, the main battleground seats are not held by incumbent Republicans that will vote against Roe codification. — PolitiTweet.org

Burgess Everett @burgessev

This will be a different bill, but the Senate voted on this already and the only votes that seem like they're in play are Murkowski/Collins/Manchin. Ceiling appears to be 52 votes -- needs 60 to advance. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump won’t win all of the races with his endorsement this month but Vance wouldn’t have won without Trump, according to interviews with 10+ senators. Cruz: “When Trump endorsed, Vance was in fourth place. And he rocketed to the front on the shoulders of Trump’s endorsement” — PolitiTweet.org

Trump reasserts dominance over GOP, and Romney doesn’t “delude” himself otherwise “It’s hard to imagine anything that would derail his support. So if he wants to become the nominee in ‘24, I think he’s very likely to achieve that” ⁦@Olivia_Beavers⁩ https://t.co/OVCoZqOlXE — PolitiTweet.org
