Contributing sentiments towards policy:

42% : Based on their comments and questions during nearly three hours' argument, six of the justices appeared ready to allow the abortion providers to sue in federal court and seek an order blocking enforcement of the Texas law.
41% : The court was not focused on the constitutionality of abortion but, rather, the procedural restrictions that have prevented abortion doctors and the Justice Department from challenging the Texas law in federal court.
40% : That would be a major change, but it would not necessarily signal how the more conservative court will rule on abortion and the future of Roe vs. Wade, the 1973 decision establishing a right to abortion.
