u up @SenatorCollins? Both of the nominees you voted for would have upheld the admitting privileges law that #SCOTUS invalidated _four_ years ago.
we will have more analysis @StrictScrutiny_. This is an important win for the women in Louisiana. And Julie Rikelman @ReproRights did a FANTASTIC job at argument.
But it is NOT at all encouraging for the future of abortion rights given the narrowness of the Chief Justice& #39;s concurrence: "I am voting this way only because SCOTUS struck down this exact same law 4 years ago."
No one with a straight face could distinguish the two laws.
AND YET the other four conservative Justices would have upheld the LA law.

OK after reading it again, I think the Chief& #39;s concurrence is even _worse_ for abortion rights than I thought, given that he purports to adhere to WWH, only to the extent the case was not about the benefits of the law? (i.e., that undue burden is only about effects/burdens???)
