Whole Woman's Health v. Hellerstedt (2016)

ثبت نشده
چکیده

In the 2016 case Whole Woman's Health v. Hellerstedt, the US Supreme Court ruled unconstitutional the Texas requirements that abortion [2] providers have admitting privileges at local hospitals and that abortion [2] facilities meet ambulatory surgical center standards. Whole Woman?s Health represented abortion [2] care providers in Texas and brought the case against the commissioner for the Texas Department of State Health Services, John Hellerstedt. In a five to three decision, the US Supreme Court ruled that the requirements of the challenged law, Texas House Bill 2, had forced the majority of abortion [2] care facilities to close. With fewer available facilities, women faced undue burdens of travel time and cost when seeking abortions, restricting their access abortion [2] care. In previous US Supreme Court cases Roe v. Wade [3] (1973) and Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992), the Court ruled that placing undue burdens on women seeking abortion [2] care was unconstitutional. Upholding those decisions in Whole Woman's Health v. Hellerstedt, the US Supreme Court struck down Texas House Bill 2 and protected women?s access to abortion [2] care.
