54% : Planned Parenthood, one of the largest providers of women's health care in the nation, sent a 30-page legal brief to the court containing testimony from women and doctors affected by the Texas law.
47% : "We are hopeful the court will step in and block SB8 from continuing to wreak havoc," said Alexis McGill Johnson, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood.
44% : In that case, the court will hear a challenge to a Mississippi law that bans abortion after 15 weeks.
43% : Laws restricting abortion have been passed in other Republican-led states but were struck down by the courts because they violated previous Supreme Court rulings which guaranteed the right to an abortion until the fetus is viable outside the womb, which is typically around 22 to 24 weeks.
