B911<\/a> – July 22, 2021<\/p>\n Today, in the case of Dobbs v. Jackson<\/a> Women\u2019s Health Organization, Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch filed her brief<\/a> with the Supreme Court of the United States to overturn Roe v. Wade<\/a>.<\/p>\n Lawmakers in Mississippi has been trying to implement a law that would ban most abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy.<\/p>\n \u201cThere are those who would like to believe that Roe v. Wade settled the issue of abortion once and for all,\u201d said Attorney General Fitch. \u201cBut all it did was establish a special-rules regime for abortion jurisprudence that has left these cases out of step with other Court decisions and neutral principles of law applied by the Court. As a result, state legislatures, and the people they represent, have lacked clarity in passing laws to protect legitimate public interests, and artificial guideposts have stunted important public debate on how we, as a society, care for the dignity of women and their children. It is time for the Court to set this right and return this political debate to the political branches of government.\u201d<\/p>\n As noted in the brief, rather than settle the discord established by Roe, Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey made matters worse. \u201cCaseyrecognized that Roe\u2019s disregard for state interests had to be abandoned\u2026. Caseytried to improve upon Roe by replacing strict scrutiny with the undue-burden standard. But that standard too defeats important state interests rather than accounts for them.<\/p>\n \u201dThe brief continues, \u201cThe only workable approach to accommodating the competing interests here is to return the matter to \u2018legislators, not judges.\u2019\u2026The national fever on abortion can break only when this Court returns abortion policy to the states \u2013 where agreement is more common, compromise is more possible, and disagreement can be resolved at the ballot box.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWith this brief, we\u2019re simply asking the Court to affirm the right of the people to protect their legitimate interests and to provide clarity on how they may do so,\u201d said Fitch.<\/p>\n https:\/\/breaking911.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" B911 – July 22, 2021 Today, in the case of Dobbs v.
