35% : During oral arguments on Dec. 1, 2021, Rikelman said, "Mississippi's ban on abortion two months before viability is flatly unconstitutional," adding the state wanted the court to dismantle Roe "and allow states to force women to remain pregnant and give birth against their will."Erasing or weakening abortion "will propel women backward" and do "profound damage to women's liberty, equality, and the rule of law," she said.
33% : The court upheld a Mississippi law that bans abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy and overturned the 1973 abortion precedent Roe v. Wade, returning the regulation of abortion to the states.
