Texas Heartbeat Act (view source)
Revision as of 18:28, September 6, 2021
, 18:28, September 6, 2021add category
In a 5-4 decision (Justices Alito, Barrett, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Thomas in the majority) the Court refused to grant an injunction. Chief Justice Roberts, in his dissent, argued that due to the unique private citizen provision, the matter should be stayed until hearings could be held, while Justices Breyer, Kagan, and Sotomayor argued that the bill was an attack on the "constitutional right" to abortion. As such, the law is currently in effect.
