“The Supreme Court rejected a request to remand Texas’ six-week abortion law back (to) a federal district court Thursday, marking another setback for advocates who have been fighting to strike down the controversial measure.
Justices Sotomayor, Kagan and Breyer dissented from the decision, which returns the issue to a state court for additional procedural determinations.”
The bill, known as a “heartbeat” law, has fueled the already fiery abortion debate and prompted speculation about the court’s disposition towards Roe v. Wade.
Last month, the court allowed Texas’ law to remain in place while maintaining a narrow legal path for abortion providers.”
“Last month’s ruling did not provide a final word on the constitutionality of Texas’ law. Justices Amy Coney Barrett, Samuel Alito and Brett Kavanaugh backed Justice Neil Gorsuch’s opinion in full.
