The amicus brief represents an unprecedented level of support from a diverse group of physicians, nurses, and other health care professionals, which demonstrates the concrete medical consensus of opposition to abortion restriction legislation such as the law at the heart of Dobbs v. Jackson.
The Supreme Court overturned the constitutional right to abortion in a landmark ruling, abandoning the nearly 50-year-old precedent established in Roe v. Wade Friday.
The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) handed down its ruling in the landmark Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health case on Friday morning, thus overturning Roe v. Wade and effectively ending constitutional protections for abortion in the United States.
The judges referenced in their decision how another panel on the 5th Circuit had similarly blocked Mississippi's 15-week abortion ban from 2018 in December. 'If a ban on abortion after 15 weeks is unconstitutional, then it follows that a ban on abortion at an earlier stage of pregnancy is also unconstitutional,' they wrote.

Dr. Thomas E. Dobbs III, the man whose name on Friday became synonymous with the Supreme Court decision to let states ban abortions, had almost nothing to do with the landmark case.
Republicans in states across the country are defiantly pushing for the criminalization of abortion — of the procedure, of abortifacient drugs and of those who travel out of state to terminate pregnancy... According to research provided to The Times by the Kaiser Family Foundation, states that have abortion bans at various early stages of pregnancy with no exception for rape or incest include Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
...But in the months since the court's decision, very few exceptions to these new abortion bans have been granted, a New York Times review of available state data and interviews with dozens of physicians, advocates and lawmakers revealed. Instead, those with means are traveling to states where abortion is still broadly legal or are obtaining abortion pills at home because the requirements to qualify for exceptions are too steep. Doctors and hospitals are turning away patients, saying that ambiguous laws and the threat of criminal penalties make them unwilling to test the rules.

But paradoxically, several of the factors that may have contributed to the rise in abortion rates seem to have sprung directly from the Dobbs decision... Some researchers believe that the Dobbs decision has actually convinced more women to get abortions...

Vermont's onerous constitutional amendment process requires multiple votes by the Legislature in back-to-back bienniums. In April 2021, the Vermont Senate again supported Proposal 5, and in February 2022 the Vermont House gave it final legislative approval, placing the question on the general election ballot this November. Should a majority of voters support the measure, Vermont would become the first state to make such an amendment to its state constitution.
