Justice Sonia Sotomayor issued a scathing dissent after the Supreme Court refused to block Texas' abortion ban
that patients leaving the state to obtain an abortion is a good thing because it is “stimulating” interstate commerce.
Sotomayor wrote that while the court was “right” to schedule arguments for the cases challenging the law, that won’t help women in Texas now. “The promise of future adjudication offers cold comfort, however, for Texas women seeking abortion care, who are entitled to relief now. These women will suffer personal harm from delaying their medical care, and as their pregnancies progress, they may even be unable to obtain abortion care altogether.
In taking the case, the court said it would consider the question of whether the U.S. government can sue to stop enforcement of the law, but the court declined Texas officials’ request to also consider overturningIn a brief filed earlier on Friday, acting Solicitor General Brian Fletcher argued that allowing the Texas law to stand would let states ignore other Supreme Court precedents.
