SCOTUS sides with Trump: won’t declare ‘right’ to abortion for illegal immigrants
https://www*****sitenews.com/news/s...blish-right-to-abortion-for-illegal-immigrantWASHINGTON, D.C., June 4, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) – Today, the Supreme Court tossed out a lower court ruling allowing a 17-year-old illegal immigrant in government custody to obtain an abortion despite the Trump administration’s protests.
Even though the baby at the center of the case has already been aborted, the Supreme Court has prevented it from setting a legal precedent establishing a “right” to abortion for underage illegal immigrants.
“The Trump Administration deserved this victory in court, as they continue to create policies designed to support a pro-life culture in America, including defunding abortion-related policies,” said Kristan Hawkins, President of Students for Life of America.
The Trump administration’s Health and Human Services has been fighting efforts by the pro-abortion ACLU to force the government to facilitate abortions for illegal immigrant minors in its custody. Pro-life advocates have called this an effort an attempt at a “Roe v. Wade 2.0,” establishing a “right” to abortion on American soil for non-citizens.
