Contributing sentiments towards policy:
48% : The state first enacted the law in 1978, but a federal court blocked it based on a case that predated Planned Parenthood v. Casey, a case in which the Supreme Court upheld a 24-hour waiting period for an abortion.43% : After Planned Parenthood v. Casey was decided, the Tennessee Supreme Court ruled in 2000 that the law violated the state's constitution.
43% : After the state constitution was amended, Tennessee again enacted a 48-hour law, which required doctors to provide the pregnant mothers with certain information, including the age of the child, alternatives to abortion and the medical risks of abortion and pregnancy.
40% : The law is supported by a rational basis, and it is not a substantial obstacle to abortion for a large fraction of women seeking pre-viability abortions in Tennessee," Circuit Court Judge Amul Thapar wrote in an opinion.
