Supreme Court Overturns Roe v. Wade, Eliminating the Constitutional Right to Abortion

, the landmark Supreme Court decision of 1973 that granted women the right to an abortion in every state, has been overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court.

The 6-to-3 ruling reverses nearly 50 years of precedent and will completely change the landscape of women's reproductive rights by giving individual states the power to decide whether to allow the procedure. It is estimated that nearly half the country will enact near-total bans in the coming months. The decision will divide the country, with most blue states allowing abortion and most red states severely limiting it.

"We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled," Justice Samuel Alito wrote in the majority opinion. "The Constitution makes no reference to abortion, and no such right is implicitly protected by any constitutional provision.""It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people's elected representatives," Alito wrote.

Demonstrators are rallying from coast to coast in the face of an anticipated Supreme Court decision that could overturn women's right to an abortion Supreme Court Abortion Protests, Salt Lake City, United States - 14 May 2022began when Mississippi's ban on abortions after 15 weeks was struck down by a federal court.

They worry about women not aborting, but here in NY they take away women's jobs.

To all the women who can no longer have an abortion…take your newborn to the Supreme Court and leave by the door. The judges have the resources to raise your child.

What's with the outrage? Can't women in the US keep their legs closed or use protection. And if you do get pregnant and want an abortion go to another state.

These are the people who voted to strike it down.

Don’t u find it funny when Democrats had control of the House and Senate, they didn’t make Abortion legal? Even more funny, Biden was pro life until he became President. Strange

Here’s an idea. Don’t get pregnant

Joe Biden once voted to overturn Roe v Wade saying women do not have the ‘sole right to say what should happen to their bodies’ | The Independent

Lmao 🤣 the elite changing tactics from Covid to war to money pox to inflation to stagflation to bitcoin going to zero now this is the new ponzi Biden needs for the people to accept him next election 🗳 look at the sorrowful music played at the background while they give speech

What a contradiction!! 😆 Reproductive Rights? At the same time to take away a human life. Define reproductive.

The dark days keep getting darker.

Sad day for USA
