The US Supreme Court has just heard oral arguments on a case regarding a Mississippi law that bans abortion after 15 weeks
The final ruling is expected to be delivered in June… and could result in millions of American women losing access to abortion.
The Supreme Court has never allowed bans before a foetus can survive outside the womb, but appears to be leaning towards allowing such state-based restrictions.
Both sides of the debate are viewing this case as an all-or-nothing fight, with justices being asked to overturn the key Roe v Wade decision, which is the 1973 case that legalised abortion nationwide.
“It is particularly important to show that what we do in overturning a case is grounded in principle and not social pressure,” Justice Stephen Breyer warned.
Mississippi is asking the court to uphold its state law that bars abortion 15 weeks after conception.
If the conservative Supreme Court does overturn the ruling… it could also result in abortion bans being implemented in as many as half of America’s states that are already preparing to prohibit the procedure.
As such, women in the South and Midwest would need to drive hundreds of miles to find the nearest abortion clinic.

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.
A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.
Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.
On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.
Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.
Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
