Missouri bans abortion, activating 'trigger law' after U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade
Springfield News-Leader via Yahoo ^ | 6.24.22

Legal abortion came to an end in Missouri on Friday with the activation of the state's "trigger law," banning the procedure minutes after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned its federal constitutionality.

The high court's ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization allows states to impose their own laws on abortion, overturning the 1973 decision Roe v. Wade that established it as legal under the U.S. Constitution. A 2019 law passed by Missouri's Republican legislature says "no abortion shall be performed or induced upon a woman, except in cases of medical emergency," taking effect after the Supreme Court "has overruled, in whole or in part, Roe v. Wade."

Attorney General Eric Schmitt, a Republican, signed an opinion Friday morning activating the trigger law.

California is firmly in Satan’s grip.

And interstate travel hasn’t been banned. Yet.

Reciprocity between states makes that hill a bit harder to climb.

Wow - that one is strict! Idaho’s is pretty close to it. I think there are several others - Alabama at least.

Here’s to hoping it makes a lot of leftists/liberals move somewhere else.

So, red flag those seeking abortions? Attempted murder? Sorta like when a pregnant person(see what I did there) is killed and the fetus is also termintated, the perp is charged with two murders. Right? Gonna be a hot time this weekend eh?

Thanks in large part to OK Attorney General John O'Connor. O'Connor is in a tough race against a rich guy who wants to buy the AG seat to advance his political career.

I was about to point that out. Abortion in America will continue. They did not declare abortion unconstitutional.

The libtard states will pass the most hideous laws imaginable in short order.

And it won’t be now since it will be the only way some women can get an abortion.

Is there something in this particular law that requires him to trigger it with an opinion? Or is that done with all Missouri laws?

Praise God for this decision. Two days in a row where the godly roots of this nation have been restored.

All the monstrosities of the SCTOUS' "substantive due process" decisions are brought up in Thomas' concurring opinion.
