The daughter of Norma McCorvey, the woman who became the face of the 1973 Roe v. Wade case, said overturning the decision was dangerous and her mother, known by her pseudonym, “Jane Roe,” would be furious with the Supreme Court for doing so. "I think mom would be turning in her grave because she was always pro-woman," Melissa Mills told USA TODAY in an exclusive interview.

"My mom never wanted women to not have access, she just didn't want to see abortion abused." Read the full story at the link in our bio. / 📸: J. Scott Applewhite, AP
