WASHINGTON - The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday gave Indiana a second chance to revive two restrictive abortion laws - one imposing an ultrasound requirement and the other expanding parental notification when minors seek abortions - by throwing out a lower court’s rulings blocking them.
The justices directed the Chicago-based 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to reconsider both cases in light of the Supreme Court’s 5-4 ruling on Monday invalidating a Louisiana law that imposed restrictions on doctors who perform abortions. The ultrasound measure would require women to undergo an ultrasound procedure at least 18 hours before terminating a pregnancy. The second law would require that parents be notified when a girl under 18 is seeking an abortion even in situations in which she has asked a court to provide consent instead of her parents, as was allowed under existing law.
Abortion rights proponents have said that for most women seeking an abortion, an ultrasound is not medically necessary, and that the requirement is an attempt by anti-abortion politicians to make obtaining an abortion more difficult.In a third Indiana case on Thursday, the court left in place a ruling in favor of an abortion clinic seeking a license to open a clinic in South Bend.

Pandemic postponements keep Supreme Court toiling into JulyLong accustomed to closing up shop by the end of June and jetting off to teaching assignments, speaking engagements and vacations, the justices on Wednesday will enter July with eight important cases to decide and a lengthy list of petitions to review. Boo hoo The next president needs to enact measures in Congress to make sure Justices do not have INDEFINITE permanent term limits. They should have a term limit similar to Congress people around 7 years. Not 10- not 20. no more than 7 yrs.

Supreme Court Says Trump Can Fire Consumer Watchdog Director, But CFPB Here To StayThe U.S. Supreme Court this week ruled the president can fire the head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) at will, but it otherwise left the bureau intact. The outcome could have been much different. Get rid of it. If you borrow money you can’t pay back that’s your fault for being dumb. SCOTUS is no longer a court. it's some kind of clearing house for liberal abuses of the constitution. things are unconstitutional but allowed to continue. lol, didnt need the court to tell us the president can fire people. Liberals begin complaining here in 3.... 2.... 1.....

Supreme Court strikes down Louisiana law that would have limited state to one abortion clinicThe 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. 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. Big win for the baby killers.
