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.

I’’ll AMEN that blessing!
It will take a few more conservative judicial replacements of leftists for that. Gorsuch and Roberts have shown themselves to be firmly in the camp of the pervert sodomites on this issue.
Possibly, but who wants to be the test case?
Bueller?
Bueller?
God bless this fine young advocate for the unborn babies!
The blessings of God are about to be poured out on the red states that follow through. Just watch. It will be like Goshen in Egypt. Light, prosperity, health vs. decay and death.
Close it down, frog-march the doctors to the hoosegow.
Missouri leads.
Precious.
Rush Limbaugh’s home state. Thank You God!!!
The forces of evil will be working over time - providing abortion anyways in contravention of the state’s laws. Just my guess. The whole world is “horrified”.
What effect will this have on midterms?
That’s what scares me. The D’s will try their best to turn out the women’s vote by scaring them to death.
Not really going to be much change. The states that permit some level of abortion will be more than those that don’t. Access to abortion will be a matter of a short drive to a neighboring state even if you’re in a restrictive state.
All thanks and praise to Lord Jesus Christ! In your Name, Lord, we call for your divine protection from the demonic domestic terrorists in their night and days of satanic rage.
In a saner world Scott Stewart would be Man Of The Year.
The media and the rest of the filthy swamp continue to behave as if President Trump is the worst type of "social disease" to ever plague planet Earth.
Well then, they are getting the reward of what they've made him out to be: the gift that keeps on giving!
God Bless President Trump.
Hello folks, please remember that Roberts wanted a decision that would have left Roe intact.
I can’t imagine how much Missouri Medicaid will save and how much revenue PP will lose.
Access to abortion will be a matter of a short drive to a neighboring state even if you’re in a restrictive state.
That may be true in the East, because the states are way too close to gather east of the Mississippi.
It will be legal in Oregon, but I doubt there will be more than one clinic east of Bend. Just because it’s a quick trip over the border if you live in Idaho doesn’t mean that it’s a quick trip to a clinic.
Missouri Medicaid only paid for abortions for rape, incest, or life of mother so I don't think the revenue savings will amount to much.
