The Supreme Court decided this week to take up the controvertial Texas abortion law case. Ever since 1973 when the court ruled that abortion was a constitutional right in Roe v. Wade, states have taken actions and passed laws that would test the limits of this right. The Texas case is one that will likely apply to most other state restrictions as well. One part of the law requires all Texas abortion clinics to meet the standards for “ambulatory surgical centers,” including regulations concerning buildings, equipment and staffing. The other requires doctors performing abortions to have admitting privileges at a nearby hospital. Proponents call them common sense solutions to ensure safety. Opponents say the law restricts access to those most in need. We asked, do YOU think SCOTUS will issue landmark ruling that give states greater ability to restrict abortion? Jump In and vote below:
