Supporters on both sides of the abortion debate gathered for protests, as the nation continues to react to a leaked draft Supreme Court opinion that appears to signal a decision by the court's justices to overturn two rulings that paved the way for legalized abortions across the country. FOX 10's Marissa Sarbak reports.There were some very heated moments outside the Arizona State Capitol on May 3, as hundreds of pro-choice and pro-life protesters gathered at the capitol.
The leaked draft, published late Monday by Politico, is a 98-page opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, which challenged the constitutionality of the Mississippi bill that banned abortion after 15 weeks. If the decision stands as written, it would also overturn Planned Parenthood v. Casey, a 1992 decision that protected abortion services even though it allowed states to add some limitations.
The draft opinion was written in February, and the language could change before the court issues its final ruling. As written, it would give states the power to decide the legality of abortion. Roughly half, largely in the South and Midwest, are likely to quickly ban abortion.If the Supreme Court votes as explicitly explained in the leaked draft, the ruling would bring the issue of abortion back to the states.The high court's Roe v. Wade decision trumped Arizona state ban on abortion.
