The North Dakota Supreme Court declared that the state's abortion ban is unconstitutional and will not be enforced.

, written by Chief Justice Jon J. Jensen, the state Supreme Court found the ban infringed on fundamental rights including "the right of enjoying and defending life and pursuing and obtaining safety."

Anti-abortion and abortion rights activists protest during the 50th annual March for Life rally in front of the U.S. Supreme Court on January 20, 2023 in Washington, DC.With the state Supreme Court decision, it means the current 21-week limit on abortions will remain in place. "Under the state constitution, North Dakotans are promised the rights to life, liberty, safety, and happiness, all of which protect the right to abortion," the statement continued. "In state after state, people have made clear that they want this right protected, yet state officials continue to ignore the will of their citizens. We will continue to work tirelessly to protect North Dakotans and the fundamental human rights of all people.

Tammi Kromenaker, director of RRWC, applauded the decision but said there were no plans to return to North Dakota.

Killing more babies! Shame on them!

Great news for Republicans....more Democrats will be aborted and less of them will reproduce...if that isn't a win win...fentanal should wipe out even more.... load the illegals and the dope with them...move them to sanctuary cities. I could go on forever helping Democrats....

Cool! 😉

yes

Cue 'women' cheering the slaughter of their own children

Odd since abortion isn't in the constitution, case will have to go to scotus

As usual people will actually believe this junk news from ABC The ban may have been illegal in the state but all that has to happen is for the legislature in North Dakota to create a law now making abortion illegal

Legalizing abortion is a threat to the future of any country.

The reason it was deemed unconstitutional? To defend life. I shit you not. This is the most Orwellian decision ever. “the right of enjoying and defending life and pursuing and obtaining safety”. Abortions to defend life. Utter insanity

Women who would turn to abortion are not worthy of marriage or motherhood. Plenty of beautiful pro-life women out there boys - pass on the rest.

So is murder . So be proud north Dakota for killing babys but allowing murderers live . Your state is pathetic karma will get them all god has plans for baby killers BB urn in hell we're to hey belong

Common sense is good. Well done, ND!

Whoopee! We can eviscerate babies in the warm again

Woo Hoo!!

State by state

Good try Republicans!

Good deal!!!

'the right of enjoying and defending life and pursuing and obtaining safety.' Does Jon J. Jensen know what the hell an abortion is?
