Numerous lawsuits over abortion laws are in the pipeline to the SupremeCourt. These laws aim to dictate: •Who can get an abortion •Who can perform one •When can a woman get one •Why a woman can choose an abortion •How a pregnancy is terminated

When a woman can get an abortionWith conservatives now in the majority on the U.S. Supreme Court, anti-abortion advocates see a historic opportunity to overturn or chip away at the constitutional right to abortion established in 1973 underConservative state officials and activists have filed dozens of lawsuits covering issues ranging from banning abortion at six weeks to blocking unaccompanied minor immigrants from ending a pregnancy, even in the case of rape.

Many of those cases have reached the appellate court level, just one step away from the Supreme Court. Here are some of the lawsuits that could upend U.S. abortion rights if the high court chooses to hear them.Most U.S. states require minors seeking abortion to either notify or obtain consent from one or both parents — a policy critics say puts teens with abusive or neglectful parents at risk.

Alabama 50 in education

Why do not they prevent the weapons that kill many of the American people ?

So get an abortion in another state.

One step forward....three back

This is about stripping women of their right to govern their own bodies. EVERY woman regardless of party needs to be aware of what is happening. Women are being made less than a full citizen with equal rights under the law.

UFUK89486848 There will be the raised of child birth and population now...

Every one should boycott all businesses in Alabama! This cannot stand!

And California allows illegal immigrants who murder walk free before ICE can detain them. It’s a mad mad world

This is so wrong. I hope that it awakens the activist in some woman and they fight against this legislation of THEIR bodies. The GOP isn't providing birth control; they're providing poverty or subservience.

Good. Roe v Wade was a bad judicial decision based feelings and not on the Constitution ProLife

Georgia's new Heartbeat Law didn't make the grade to darken this map? Aww, GovernorKemp will be so disappointed. He will have stolen an election for almost nothing.

FAKENEWS

So basically if your dad rapes you Alabama says you must endure the pregnancy and keep the kid. Nice.

Gross.

And for good reason according to this testimony:

What we learned about our nation is that there are states and men in power that believe rape and incest are perfectly okay means to produce a child.

They should have better birth prevention if they are going to do this. If you care it only makes sense. Put 2 and 2 together to avoid a catch22. To be pro life you have to be able to care in the right way. Free birth prevention everywhere or very cheap like vending machines in RR

Yet another reason why people are flocking to the great state of Alabama.

Have you notice its in states that have the most heavy population of evangelical and mormons

Alabama's restrictive abortion bill will almost certainly be blocked by the lower courts. But that’s the point. Anti-abortion state legislatures and governors want SCOTUS's conservative majority to overturn, or at least significantly curtail Roe v Wade.

2 California Supreme Court justices say the state’s death penalty system doesn’t workTwo weeks after Gov. Gavin Newsom declared a moratorium on executions, two justices on the state’s highest court called California’s death penalty “an expensive and dysfunctional system” that delivers neither justice nor timely closure. wHAT i GOT TO PEE...HOLD ON...C.I.A DIRECTOR LIL' O. 999.9 Voters specifically voted against the end of the executions. In fact, they wanted them accelerated. Newsom is acting like a dictator making decisions in opposition to the will of the people of the state. Death penalty saves money as it gives the wretched murder a quick out if offered a life sentence. Take way the death penalty and the litigation will be extended on and on. Defense lawyer's job is to reduce the penalty no matter what.

Supreme Court to hear gerrymandering cases against Democrats, RepublicansWhen state legislatures draw the boundary lines for voting districts, the majority party typically comes up with a map designed to keep itself in power. But can that become so blatantly political that it violates the Constitution? Can fake investigations be so blatantly political that is breaks the law? In California one-party system uses underhanded techniques to shift election results. They trick independent voters to sign under the AIP (a different party), harvest ballots, unilaterally change words on approved citizen initiatives to load questions... to name several. Tyranny When Republicans do it, the Left calls it ‘gerrymandering’. But when the Democrats do exactly the same, the Left instead call it “Redistricting”.

Supreme Court won’t hear appeal from company resisting Mueller subpoenaThe foreign-owned corporation faces daily fines for not cooperating with grand jury. I don't get this either. Although I always knew nothing would be done to Trump. The US President is above the law while in office, so folks, elections matter a hell of lot more than you think. Unless he actually commits treason, he is safe from all till he is out. Something seems fishy...if there is still an ongoing legal battle about this, how can the MuellerReport be complete? A day late, a dollar short, no?

Supreme Court ponders limits to gerrymanderingThe Supreme Court on Tuesday wrestles with the issue of extreme, partisan gerrymandering, a practice North Carolina college students and others call unconstitutional. End Gerrymandering Important case. A free and representative government cannot survive with gerrymandering. This is such a huge deal and it doesn’t get the attention it deserves. If you want to end political extremism, polarization, and pandering to a base, you end gerrymandering.

Supreme Court Halts Execution, Ruling Inmate Entitled to Buddhist ClericThe Supreme Court blocked Texas from executing a Buddhist inmate Thursday, saying that the condemned man was entitled to a spiritual adviser in the death chamber just as Christian prisoners may request a chaplain’s presence. Uh respect the beliefs of the murderer? USA you are going backwards... How can an Atheist prisoner do this ? If religious prisoners can have execution's delayed, then why not atheist ! Let him have any spiritual advisor he wants as long as you pull the trigger. That is now a tactic to delay execution (ie I want a spiritual advisor you don’t have available). Let them have whoever they want and see what delay tactic they come up with then.

Supreme Court again tackles whether to stop partisan gerrymanderingThe Supreme Court on Tuesday will not have to debate whether a group of North Carolina politicians deliberately redrew election maps to give their party the maximum partisan advantage. The state’s Republican leaders admitted to doing exactly that. Don't worry, the stacked Supreme Court will figure out a way to let them off the hook regardless. Instead the question before the court — for the second time in as many years — is whether the high court believes extreme partisan gerrymandering is unconstitutional. Don't matter bring all the facts what it comes down to it it is all about party
