Two years after Roe v. Wade was reversed by the U.S. Supreme Court, abortion rights were back this term on the justices' desk, this time, unanimously deciding to let an abortion pill remain widely available, and dismissing a case about Idaho's strict abortion ban. But while the issue may have had a good run, it may also set the stage for more future restrictions, according to a new analysis by The New York Times.
In the 2022 decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, the court case that overturned Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court signaled that it sought to get out of the abortion business, according to The Times.
