In Dobbs v. Jackson Womenâs Health Organization the U.S. Supreme Court upheld a Mississippi law banning most abortions after the 15th week of pregnancy. It thus overturned both Roe v. Wade (1973) and Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992), which had found that restrictions on abortion are unconstitutional if they place an âundue burdenâ on a person seeking an abortion before the fetus is viable.
