The decision was not to legalize abortion. The decision was to decide whether or not abortion is classified as a medical procedure. Unfortunately, it is. Additionally, SCOTUS ruled that if a person chooses to get a legal abortion, it cannot be made public information. Therefore, ALL medical data is private, highly protected data. It is actual one of the most consequential and important SCOTUS rulings in the country’s history, but not for the reasons we are usually told. It should be an untouchable decision and it was ruled as such. Dismantling it would open a Pandora’s box.
