#VICTORY: Abortion remains legal in South Carolina after the state supreme court ruled today that the six-week abortion ban violates South Carolinians’ constitutional right to privacy. The ban had been blocked by federal courts since 2021 but took effect shortly after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Today’s ruling permanently strikes down the ban, allowing doctors to continue providing abortion care to patients beyond the earliest stages of pregnancy in a region decimated by state abortion bans. “Today’s decision means that the right to make deeply personal health care decisions will remain protected in South Carolina—an immense victory for South Carolinians and the entire region.” —Nancy Northup, Center for Reproductive Rights president and CEO Tap the link in our bio to learn more.
