One year later, the Supreme Court’s abortion decision is both scorned and praised

Associated Press  

Activists and politicians are marking the one-year anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court ruling that overturned a nationwide right to abortion with praise from some and protests from others. “We knew this decision would create a healthcare crisis in America,” she said, pointing to women who were initially denied abortion access even during miscarriages because hospitals were concerned about legal fallout. While there’s far from a universal consensus among voters, public opinion polls have consistently found that the majority oppose the most restrictive bans but also oppose unchecked abortion access at all stages of pregnancy. “Exactly one year ago today, those justices were the pivotal votes in the Supreme Court’s landmark decision ending the constitutional atrocity known as Roe v. Wade,” Trump said. He also declared: “I am proud to be the most pro-life president in American history.” This week, former Vice President Mike Pence, who is seeking the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, called for his party’s presidential candidates to join him in backing a ban after 15 weeks of pregnancy.
