Kansas' top court rejects 2 anti-abortion laws, bolstering state right to abortion access

[C_Clayton_Jones]

‘Kansas' highest court on Friday struck down state laws regulating abortion providers more strictly than other health care professionals and banning a common second-trimester procedure, reaffirming its stance that the state constitution protects abortion access.

The Kansas Supreme Court's 5-1 rulings in two separate cases signal that the state's Republican-controlled Legislature faces stricter limits on regulating abortion than GOP lawmakers thought and suggests other restrictions could fall. Lawsuits in lower state courts already are challenging restrictions on medication abortions, a ban on doctors using teleconferences to meet with patients, rules for what doctors must tell patients before an abortion and a requirement that patients wait 24 hours after receiving information about a procedure to terminate their pregnancies.

"We stand by our conclusion that section 1 of the Kansas Constitution Bill of Rights protects a fundamental right to personal autonomy, which includes a pregnant person's right to terminate a pregnancy," Justice Eric Rosen wrote for the majority in overturning the ban on dilation and evacuation, also known as D&E.’

In other words they just made it up, their state constitution does not cover abortion. They are just repeating what old corrupt immoral SCOTUS used to do. If the current SCOTUS has any balls, they will overrule this, making it clear that states will need to pass clear amendments to their constitution if they want to allow abortion, instead of vague interpretations of them.

The voters of the state made their wishes apparent, but leftwing radicals hate following the will of the people.

Kansas can do what Kansas wants about abortions. It's their state right.

Thank you for illustrating that Roe v. Wade was unnecessary and UnConstitutional.

Ofc millions of babies died because of it, and their souls deserve justice.

A victory for people that want to kill innocent children in the womb. Pure Evil.

Here we go. While I understood the simple legal arguments over RvW I supported it standing for this reason right here.

Dr Haskell who was the architect of the D&E abortion (late term partial birth abortion if you prefer) operated out of Kansas. He noted that many of his abortions happened because of "maternal indication" or in other words, age of the mother.

The 16 year old hid her pregnancy until it no longer could be hid resulting in a really late second trimester or third trimester abortion. The fetus is viable at this point.

We were successful in having that banned nationwide. Now here we are actually expanding access to abortion, even late term. This is what those who wanted a political win gave us. It was never about the mother, or the fetus. It was about a political win.

As we saw with the latest ruling on presidential immunity it was never actually about the Constitution and it's plain language either. It was nothing more than getting a political win.

Sad.

Nope, they simply re-affirmed what most Constitutional scholars already believed. Those that oppose the ruling are the ones that have changed their tune for political purposes. Orange man bad.

As for Roe v Wade, it was bad precedent that was corrected.

People that want to kill babies are evil. I am saddened that some taxpayers have to pay to enable their macabre desires without any voice in the matter.

Do you want to fill, rub down, and paint the dent thats on your car? No? Then don't hit it with a hammer.

Do you want an abortion, scrape the baby out of your body and trash it? No? Then don't get pregnant.

If you don't want kids, or a kid yet, why get pregnant? IQ issues?

This just proves that states are fully capable of handling abortion laws on their own. We never needed Roe v Wade. MAGA

The scotus of roe v wade had two options :

1 ) a legitimate state interest in abortion did not exist until live birth , as live birth is the only non incidental requirement to become a citizen , and by equitable doctrine a live birth is required for equal protection with a citizen - logically , of course ; else , pass a constitutional amendment to outlaw abortion .

2 ) given a requirement for live birth for equal protection with a citizen , in lieu of a live birth requirement and based on an ability for a fetus to survive and imminent live birth , a legitimate state interest may begin at natural viability based upon a potential to receive a constitutionally protected rite to life , which the court referred to as " potential life " , as in a potential rite to life .

In effect dobbs is dumbfounded and sedition against us 14th , 9th , 1st and 10th amendments , and malfeasance against title 1 section 8 of us code , and scotus should be formally charged with the crimes , as should any despot suspending us constitution .

" The Court did not explain the basis forthis line, and even abortion supporters have found it hard to defend Roe’s reasoning.

Wtf is this AI bot gibberish?

The ban was upheld by the Supreme Court because of the parameters created by RvW. RvW gone, the ban is gone.

Proof is right here in this thread.

We overturned RvW but once again allowed late term abortions.

Reproductive rights defenders on Friday cheered a pair of Kansas Supreme Court decisions reaffirming the right to abortion and striking down various restrictions—rulings expected to impact people beyond the Midwestern state, given how many patients must now travel for care.

The justice wrote Friday that "S.B. 95 does not further patient safety, it compromises patient safety," noting that "as the district court found and the state did not contest, S.B. 95 eliminates a safe and common medical procedure and leaves patients subject to procedures that are rarely used, are untested, and are sometimes more dangerous or impossible."

The court's other new ruling was about what critics call targeted restrictions on abortion providers (TRAP) policies. Both decisions were 5-1—with Justice Stegall Caleb dissenting and Justice K.J. Wall not participating—and followed Kansas voters rejecting a proposed anti-choice amendment to the state constitution in August 2022.

"Now the Kansas Supreme Court has decisively reaffirmed that the state constitution protects abortion as a fundamental right."
