He did vote to uphold the Pennsylvania spousal notification law, but maybe he knew it would be overturned anyway so he could do it "safely".

His mother thinks he's pro life.

Even in the Pennsylvania case, he bowed to precedent. He simply held that the spousal notification law did not violate the right of a woman to an abortion.

To my knowledge, Alito is nowhere on record criticizing Roe V. Wade, nor espousing pro-life views. If such proof exist, I would love to see it.

It little matters what his personal viewpoint is on the issue, however, when he believes that following the rule of law means following unconstitutional precedent.
