What did the US Supreme Court’s statement mean?
In simpler words, the statement meant that each state can now introduce its own measures on abortion, which will mean that many will have no choice. But to travel to another state if they wish to have an abortion. In the Supreme Court, Justice Samuel who belonged to the majority opinion said, “abortion presents a profound moral issue on which Americans hold sharply conflicting views. The Constitution does not prohibit the citizens of each State from regulating or prohibiting abortion.”
