The decision also raised concerns about similar rights granted by the Court that were not enumerated within the Constitution.[1] Alito's opinion had stated that the Fourteenth Amendment only covered those rights that were deep-seated at the time of its ratification in 1869, which did not include abortion, but further stated that the opinion was strictly limited to rights related to abortion. However, according to Thomas' concurrence, the right to contraceptives and to same-sex marriage would be challenged based on Dobbs since these rights were also not recognized during the 19th century. Legal experts cautioned that the interpretation of the Constitution by both Alito and Thomas would be harmful to women, minorities, and other marginalized groups.
