Chemerinsky: Ruling in abortion cases will greatly affect women's lives but won't end controversy

There is little doubt that October 2021-2022 term will be most remembered for its decisions about state laws imposing restrictions on abortion. In November, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in two cases⁠—Whole Woman’s Health v. Jackson and United States v. Texas—that involved a Texas law prohibiting abortions after about the sixth week of pregnancy. On Wednesday, the court will hear oral arguments in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which involves a Mississippi law prohibiting abortions after the 15th week of pregnancy.
