What the Supreme Court's order means for the future of Roe v. Wade
CNN
In a midnight order, a 5-4 Supreme Court green-lit Texas' six-week abortion ban despite the fact that it violates Roe v. Wade, the landmark opinion -- still on the books -- that legalized abortion nationwide prior to viability, which can occur at around 24 weeks of pregnancy.
The court's majority said that the abortion providers behind the challenge had raised "serious constitutional questions" about the law, but that they hadn't shown they'd be irreparably injured if it were allowed to go into effect for now. The majority's opinion, over a spare page and a half, revealed the fragility of Roe going forward.More Related News
