NBC News: Supreme Court to take up major Mississippi abortion case
The announcement is a boost to abortion opponents, who hope that a newly conservative court will be more receptive to abortion restrictions.
This case is seen as a direct challenge to Roe v. Wade.
?the Trump-packed US Supreme Court will take up Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban, with only allows exceptions for medical emergencies or “severe fetal abnormality” NOT for rape or incest. ? Our rights hang in the balance. https://t.co/gkKcrkVQdj
