Mississippi’s Attorney General Lynn Fitch has just filed a brief asking the Supreme Court to overturn
Roe v. Wade and allow for individual states to determine the options for life and abortion. The case,
Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, is related to a Mississippi law that was enacted to ban abortions after 15-weeks.
Of course, lower courts struck down the law citing Supreme Court precedents. So, Mississippi asked the Supreme Court to intervene and hear the case. The ACLJ joined Mississippi and filed an amicus brief in order to encourage the Court to hear the case and put the Constitution before the misguided pro-abortion precedents. The Court agreed to do so and will hear this case this fall.
