Washington, D.C. – This morning the United States Supreme Court announced that the Texas Heartbeat Act will remain in effect while litigation continues. Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the national pro-life group Susan B. Anthony List reacted saying:
“We celebrate that the Texas Heartbeat Act will remain in effect, saving the lives of unborn children and protecting mothers while litigation continues in lower courts. Meanwhile, we anxiously await the Court’s decision in the Dobbs case in which the Court is directly considering the constitutionality of laws that protect unborn children and mothers prior to viability. Dobbs presents the biggest opportunity in generations to modernize our laws. We have great hope that the Court will return the issue back to the people to decide through their elected representatives, letting democracy and consensus prevail.”
