Some weeks ago the SCOTUS refused to act on the TX abortion law. And rightly so as pointed out by II74. No victim, no crime. It will come before the court eventually once some woman whose fetus has a heartbeat and she still wants an abortion can be found to bring suit.
The TX opinion on this matter, as well as several other states that have approached the issue from a different angle, is simply that the Constitution is mute on the subject of abortion so therefore the matter falls to the individual states. Yeah, yeah, you have your opinion but in the end the court will render it's decision.
Which brings us to the vaccine mandate/rule recently 'ordered' by OSHA and the Biden administration. As anyone aware knows that 'rule' has been enjoined by at least one federal district court. This is probably going to be fast tracked to the SCOTUS given the timeliness of requiring a decision. Thousands of livelihoods are at stake here, the economic implications are enormous.
That being said the base arguments are the same. The constitution is mute on the subject of vaccinations therefore, in the opinion of some, the decisions re. same fall to the state just as vaccinations for children regarding school admission.
The point here is that the courts decision regarding vaccination (assuming thats' the first to hit the docket) is most likely to have an impact on the decision regarding the TX abortion law.
I have NO idea as to which way the court will find in either case but I do know that the court would have to make some serious legal contortions to rule one way in the first case to hit the docket and rule contrarily in the second case. They are fundamentally the same case.
