'''''Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization''''' was a Supreme Court decision released on June 24, 2022 that overturned ''[[Roe v. Wade]]''.

'''''Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization''''' was a [[United States Supreme Court]] decision released on June 24, 2022 that overruled ''[[Roe v. Wade]]'', and is the [[Decision of the Century]]. This decision also overturned [[Planned Parenthood v. Casey]].

The vote was two fold: one part of the decision was 6–3 with Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Alito, Thomas, Barrett, Kavanaugh, and Gorsuch voting to uphold the Mississippi law under challenge (which prohibited most abortions after 15 weeks from conception) and Justices Sotomayor, Kagan and Breyer in opposition. In a separate 5–4 vote, the same Justices (with the exception of Chief Justice Roberts) chose to overturn ''Roe''. Justice Alito wrote the majority opinion joined by the other four Justices who voted to overturn Roe (Justices Thomas and Kavanaugh also wrote separate concurring opinions), while Chief Justice Roberts wrote a separate opinion which concurred in the judgment to uphold the Mississippi law but not to overturn Roe, and the three dissenting Justices co-authored their dissenting opinion.

In a separate 5–4 vote, the same Justices (with the exception of Chief Justice Roberts) chose to overturn ''Roe'' in its entirety.  

Contrary to the [[lamestream media]], the vote did not overturn abortion nationwide, but simply returned the matter to the states.
