The law includes exceptions for cases of rape or incest if the woman files a police report, and when the mother's life is in danger.
The law, known as the `heartbeat bill`, bans most abortions after six weeks of pregnancy.
The U.S. Supreme Court allowed Georgia's six-week abortion ban to remain in effect.
On October 24, 2023, the Supreme Court of the United States allowed a controversial abortion law in Georgia to remain in effect. The law, known as the heartbeat bill, bans most abortions after six weeks of pregnancy, a point at which many women may not even know they are pregnant. The law was passed in Georgia in 2019, but was temporarily blocked by a federal judge later that year. The Supreme Court's decision to let the law stand marks a significant moment in the ongoing national debate over abortion rights.
The law includes exceptions for cases of rape or incest if the woman files a police report, and when the mother's life is in danger. However, it does not include exceptions for cases of severe fetal abnormality. Critics of the law argue that it effectively outlaws most abortions in the state, as many women do not realize they are pregnant until after the six-week mark. Supporters of the law, on the other hand, argue that it protects the rights of unborn children.
The Supreme Court's decision to let the law stand does not necessarily indicate how it will rule on the constitutionality of the law in the future. The court has not yet heard arguments on the case, and it is unclear when it will do so. The decision to let the law stand in the meantime, however, has been seen by many as a sign that the court may be willing to uphold more restrictive abortion laws in the future.
