On June 24, 2022, the United States Supreme Court handed down its decision in the landmark abortion case, Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization (No.19-1392, 2022). The decision held that the nearly 50-year precedent, Roe v. Wade 410 U. S. 113(1973), which federally barred states fromregulating abortions before fetal viability, and 30-year precedent, Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pa. v. Casey 505 U.S. 833(1992), would both be overturned in full. In effect, the Court ruled that the states (“the people and their elected representatives”) or the federal legislative bodies would be responsible for the regulation or liberalization of their respective abortion laws instead of the Supreme Court.
