Mayor Eric Adams decried the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) Friday for “attempting to destroy” the rights of women.

For the second consecutive day, Adams found himself at City Hall to react on a controversial Supreme Court decision affecting millions of New Yorkers. Less than 24-hours after the SCOTUS struck down a century-old gun restriction, the mayor was back to condemn the judges once again for abolishing a woman’s right to choose protected in the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling of 1973, kicking such decisions back to the states.
