Today, the Supreme Court of the United States issued its decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, a case that weighed the constitutionality of a Mississippi law restricting abortion access after 15 weeks’ gestational age. In a 6 to 3 decision, the majority sided with the state, effectively overturning Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 case that, along with Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992), had established the right to abortion under the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment up to the point of fetal viability. The case has garnered widespread attention, which was amplified in May after a draft of the opinion was leaked to the public.
Here, Harvard Law School faculty react to the decision and offer their thoughts on what comes next.
