Supreme Court Will Hear Arguments on Texas Abortion Law

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : There is little question that the ban itself is unconstitutional under two key Supreme Court precedents, Roe v. Wade in 1973 and Planned Parenthood v. Casey in 1992.
48% : "The legislature has imposed a prohibition on abortions after roughly six weeks, and then essentially delegated enforcement of that prohibition to the populace at large.
48% : That case is a direct challenge to the constitutional right to abortion.
39% : But the court said it would decide only the procedural questions of who is entitled to sue, not the constitutional one of whether the law violates precedents guaranteeing a right to abortion until fetal viability.
26% : The Texas abortion law, known as Senate Bill 8, amounts to a nearly complete ban on abortion in the state.
