The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments against Roe vs. Wade on the fifteen-week ban on abortions in Mississippi. The expectation on this case has grown since the Supreme Court allowed a law to take effect in Texas that banned abortions after just sixteen weeks of pregnancy. Abortion providers and advocates claim that the Mississippi and Texas laws oppose the Roe ruling. However, many Republicans have claimed that abortion should be regulated by the states and not by federal law.
