2 abortion bans illegal, Oklahoma justices rule

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : "Hopefully patients will be receiving the medically necessary care they need without waiting until they are on death's door."Since the U.S. Supreme Court's Dobbs ruling last year that overturned Roe v. Wade and the nationwide right to abortion, tighter abortion restrictions have been enacted in most Republican-controlled states and protections of abortion access have gone into effect in most that are dominated by Democrats.
45% : "Except for certain circumstances outlined in that statute, abortion is still unlawful in the state of Oklahoma."
39% : "Despite the court's decisions today on SB 1603 and HB 4327, Oklahoma's 1910 law prohibiting abortion remains in place," Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond said in a statement.
21% : OKLAHOMA CITY -- The Oklahoma Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday that two state laws banning abortion are unconstitutional, but abortion remains illegal in the state in nearly all cases except life-threatening situations.
