Hillary Clinton slammed the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

The opinion "will live in infamy as a step backward for women's rights and human rights," she said.

The Court overturned the landmark ruling that established the constitutional right to an abortion.

Hillary Clinton said the Supreme Court's decision on Friday to overturn the 1973 landmark Roe v. Wade ruling is a "step backward" for women's rights.

"Most Americans believe the decision to have a child is one of the most sacred decisions there is, and that such decisions should remain between patients and their doctors," she tweeted after the decision.

She continued: "Today's Supreme Court opinion will live in infamy as a step backward for women's rights and human rights."

The Supreme Court's decision to overrule Roe on Friday was part of an opinion in the case Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization.

"The Constitution does not confer a right to abortion; Roe and Casey are overruled; and the authority to regulate abortion is returned to the people and their elected representatives,"the Friday ruling said.

The ruling now leaves the legality of abortion up to state legislatures.
