Abortion is hanging by a thread . . . and Even Planned Parenthood Knows it!

Earlier this fall, the Supreme Court granted the petition to consider June Medical Services LLC v. Gee. This is the first abortion-related case to be heard by SCOTUS since the disappointing decision in Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt and its decision has the potential to dismantle the abortion giant.

The majority decision in Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt struck down a Texas law requiring abortionists have hospital admitting privileges and that abortion clinics comply with the same standards as ambulatory surgery centers. While these measures are common sense and help protect the life of a mother experiencing complications from an abortion procedure, abortion supporters claimed the Texas law created a burden not only on abortion providers, but also on a women’s “constitutional” right to get an abortion.

The Louisiana law at the center of June Medical Services LLC v. Gee is almost identical to that in Hellerstedt. The question the Justices will have to answer is whether or not the 5th Circuit’s decision upholding Louisiana’s law requiring physicians performing abortions to have hospital admitting privileges conflicts with the Supreme Court’s precedent set in Hellerstedt.

Louisiana Solicitor General Liz Murrill said of the case:

It is hypocritical for abortion providers and their supporters to claim the lawsuit is helping women when its end goal is to decrease the standard of care women receive from Louisiana abortion providers who have a long documented history of medical malpractice, disciplinary actions, and violations of health and safety standards.”

These two cases show us that the abortion industry doesn’t really care about women. If they did, they would support laws that better the medical care a woman has access to while having the procedure. With the placement of Justice Gorsuch and Justice Kavanaugh the Supreme Court now has the potential to dismantle Roe. Even Planned Parenthood knows this. The Acting President of Planned Parenthood Alexis McGill Johnson recently said of the case, “Access to abortion is hanging by a thread in this country, and this case is what could snap that thread.”

We can only hope this will happen. Eagle Forum will continue to monitor June Medical Services LLC v. Gee. Andjoin us in praying for wisdom for our Supreme Court Judges as they hear this case.
