What the Texas abortion law means for Roe v. Wade
| Legal experts said the Supreme Court’s refusal Wednesday to block a new Texas ban on most abortions could foreshadow further erosion of reproductive rights by the conservative majority court.
The court’s next opportunity to take up such a case is just months away, with the justices preparing next term to review a 15-week abortion ban by Mississippi that takes direct aim at the court’s landmark 1973 ruling in Roe v. Wade that first recognized a constitutional right to the procedure. |
