The Supreme Court on Monday struck down a Louisiana law that could have left the state with a single abortion clinic. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. added his deciding fifth vote to those of the court’s four-member liberal wing.

The case involved a Louisiana abortion law requiring doctors who provide abortions to have admitting privileges at a hospital within 30 miles of their clinic. Challengers of the law alleged the restriction would limit the state to just one abortion provider at a single clinic.

Breyer wrote that the law posed a "substantial obstacle" on women and provided "no significant health-related benefits," and therefore was unconstitutional. Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry, a Republican said in a statement that the top court had "continued its heartbreaking line of decisions that places 'access' to abortion above the health and safety of women and girls."

Dannenfelser said the Supreme Court decision "reinforces just how important Supreme Court judges are to advancing the pro-life cause" and called it "imperative that we re-elect President Trump and our pro-life majority in the U.S. Senate so we can further restore the judiciary, most especially the Supreme Court."

Trump campaigned on nominating justices who would "automatically" overturn the landmark abortion decision Roe v. Wade, and the Department of Justice supported Louisiana in the case."States have legitimate interests in regulating any medical procedure — including abortions — to protect patient safety," McEnany said in a statement.

Jesus Christ what a shit show is that.

Big win for the baby killers.

Maybe if women controlled their body more, since they scream it's my body, n stop spreading their legs to anything that will take them, they wouldn't need to murder their own flesh and blood.
