Abortion Ruling Could Create Waves of Legal Challenges

[moonshaz]

From Texas to Alabama to Wisconsin, more than a dozen Republican-run states in recent years have passed laws requiring that abortion clinics have hospital-grade facilities or use doctors with admitting privileges at nearby hospitals.

Now, Monday’s Supreme Court ruling - that those provisions in a Texas law do not protect women’s health and place

Truly ecstatic about this ruling, it's about time these transparently bullshit laws are struck down. It's almost hard to believe women are still fighting for the right to chose 40 years after Roe v Wade, but then I remember that Trump is the presumptive Republican nominee and I realize that people are fucking idiots.

Right there with you! It's absolutely incredible and horrifying that women are *still* being told what to do with their bodies in this day and age.

Done. It was supposed to have been there--I don't know what happened.

said it would continue to fight “to protect women from a dangerous and greedy abortion industry.”

These fucking straight-faced liars, holy shit.

This is really some if the best news this month. Still, the game of judicial whack-a-mole will continue as part of the War on Women until we get Federal abortion rights legislation.

I was cackling when RBG and Sotomayer grilled the attorney on whether this legislation was actually meant to make abortion safer.
