Washington: On Monday, the United States Supreme Court has ‘handed
a victory to abortion rights advocates,’ and nullified strict regulations on
abortion. The law imposed yesterday also incorporated doctors and abortion facilities
following its critics ‘contended specifically designed to shut down the
clinics.’
Reports are that the 5-3 ruling was an end of the 2013 law
placed over the women of the country saying that ‘women exercising their
constitutional right to end a pregnancy established in the landmark 1973 Roe v.
Wade decision.’ The nine member court was a member short on Monday and has seen
a controversial death of Justice Antonin Scalia on February 13, this year, who
consistently opposed the abortion law.
We conclude that neither of these provisions offers medical
benefits sufficient to justify the burdens upon access that each imposes. Each
places a substantial obstacle in the path of women seeking a previability
abortion, each constitutes an undue burden on abortion access… and each
violates the Federal Constitution,” said the writing by Justice Stephen Breyer.
Justice Breyer was later joined by Justices Ruth Bader
Ginsburg, Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Anthony Kennedy, which also decided
the ruling of the court.
