This week’s Feedback Friday topic is:
Supreme Court & Abortion Law
This week, headlines have been dominated by news of the U.S. Supreme Court undergoing oral arguments of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, involving the Mississippi ban on most abortions after fifteen weeks. In the arguments, the conservative justice majority has debated the merit of basing judgement on past precedents—notably Roe v. Wade, decided in 1973, and Planned Parenthood v. Casey, decided in 1992 (both cases that protected reproductive rights and access to abortion)—signaling that they may allow states to ban abortion and perhaps overturn a nationwide right that has existed for nearly 50 years.
Our questions to you:
What is your opinion of abortion rights, access, and the current arguments being heard at the Supreme Court level?
Agree or disagree with the possibility of states banning abortions much earlier in pregnancy, or altogether?
Please share your thoughts by filling out this form.
