The Illinois angle is that while Illinois would never pass such a law, neighboring states might, thereby overloading our abortion infrastucture.
5-4 ruling. Good thing we have a “conservative” majority.
Lori Light in the loafers guarantees murder with freedom from prosecution.
For a start, suing some poor Uber driver because they drove someone to get an abortion is going to increase economic uncertainty in very unhelpful ways. If the GOP embraces this approach, its their funeral. Mostly likely this will be overturned once people start getting sued.
Therein lies the rub. Our constitutional republic wasn't set up so that a court could create law from thin air. Quite the opposite.
If you read through the Declaration of Independence, most of the text are complaints the founders had against the British government. And a lot of that text had to do with courts violating laws from Parliament and creating laws from thin air to suit the crown's goals in the colonies.
When we treat stare decisis (otherwise known as "case precedent" or "case law") as equal to Constitutional law we lose our soul as a nation. Exhibit A are the 60 million babies aborted because Roe v Wade and Planned Parenthood v Casey said it's cool.
What amazes me the most is four people on the SC said it is okay to murder a child
Big opportunity for Illinois!
Additional tax revenue
New distribution centers for fetal tissue
Employment opportunities for sample preparation
Stimulation for the hospitality industry
How many women are two weeks late & haven’t done a pregnancy test?
The issue in the case was procedural. Did they plaintiff show enough to obtain a preliminary injunction? The majority could have care about the merits, they focused on whether the legal standard for such relief had been met and the answer was “no.”
The case continues and the merits remain undecided.
Yet the media goes on and on as if abortion had been outlawed.
Did anyone read the actual ruling? The ruling was that the lawsuit was not properly structured. Had nothing to do with the law itself but that the plaintiffs were suing the law itself trying to get it suspended. The court rejected the request for an emergency suspension of the law.
They neither confirmed not denied the law itself. This was rejected on procedural technicalities.
Illinois has no standing to worry about what Texas does. The Supreme Court just ruled that way a year ago during the election.
The Supremes should Never have ruled in Roe vs. Wade.
It should have been a states right issue.
N.Y. and Calif. will always go for abortion.
Alabama, never but it was shoved up their asses. You want an abortion, go to a liberal state
And with his vote, Roberts PROVES that he is “political”...something he claimed he NEVER wanted the Court to be.
Hypocrite.
It will be interesting to see if ‘abortion tourism’ will be prosecuted under the Man Act.
It should be.
