Over 200 members of Congress, largely Republican men, asked the U.S. Supreme Court to consider overturning 2 landmark abortion rights cases ahead of oral arguments in a Louisiana abortion case slated for March.
"that the Fifth Circuit’s struggle to define the appropriate 'large fraction' or determine what 'burden' on abortion access is 'undue' illustrates the unworkability of the 'right to abortion' found in Roe v. Wade...and the need for the Court to again take up the issue of whether Roe and Casey should be reconsidered and, if appropriate, overruled."
The clinic and two Louisiana doctors who challenged the law argued that it was identical to a Texas law that the Supreme Court in 2016 struck down, saying it imposed an obstacle on women seeking access to abortion services without providing them any medical benefits.

Casey—in an apparent effort to crush reproductive rights at the federal level.
