In a 5–4 decision, the Supreme Court has ruled in favor of abortion providers in June Medical Services v.

In doing so, the majority has upheld flawed precedent and permitted abortionists to continue benefiting from an enormous loophole, ignoring the health and safety concerns at stake for women seeking a surgical abortion.
