Answer:

This statement is True. Opposing views on the right to privacy played a major role the Supreme Courts decision to legalize abortion.

Explanation:

Roe v. Wade (1973) is a Supreme Court case ruling that transformed American attitudes towards privacy. The debate about abortion rights that is represented in this case brought the idea of our American right to privacy into the mainstream. The ruling was passed with a margin of 7-2 and was largely based on the process clause contained in the Fourteenth Amendment: “…nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.” It was thus that the Supreme Court ruled that criminalizing abortion violated a woman’s constitutional right to privacy.
