Supreme Court hearings about abortion issue may affect presidential election
In the United States, the Supreme Court has raised interest in the prospect of hearing and making decisions on the issue of abortion, which could affect the presidential election.
The Supreme Court hears abortion-regulated state laws passed in 2014 in southern Louisiana.
This state law imposes strict conditions on medical facilities performing abortion surgeries, including the requirement to cooperate with nearby hospitals that have hospitalization facilities. Few facilities meet the requirements, and it is extremely difficult to perform abortion surgery when state law is enforced.
In 2016, the Supreme Court ruled that five out of eight judges on a similar state law in southern Texas "restricted women's opportunities for abortion and violated the Constitution," and ruled unconstitutionally. .
However, since the administration of the Trump administration has replaced two judges of the Supreme Court with a majority of conservative judges, it has been pointed out that judgments may change and abortion may be restricted.
Last year in the United States, nine states have passed stringent state laws prohibiting or restricting abortion, and interest in abortion has increased.
The Supreme Court will hear Louisiana state law over abortion in March and expect to make a decision in June, which could affect the November presidential election.
