Supreme Court justices agreed to hear a pair of challenges to Texas’ abortion ban in an expedited process, the court said Friday.
The court declined again to temporarily halt the novel ban — which bans most abortions as early as six weeks of pregnancy — as litigation over its constitutionality continues.
Justice Sonia Sotomayor argued in a statement that the law should be blocked while the court considers the arguments.
The court deferred a request from President Joe Biden to block its enforcement prior to a final ruling issued by the 5th Circuit of Appeals.
Another abortion case that challenges the abortion-rights precedent established by Roe vs. Wade in 1973 will be heard on Dec. 1.
While abortion-rights advocates asked the court to quickly take their case, Texas officials said the request should be denied since the court of appeals will soon hear the arguments. They also argued that the justices should overturn Roe and the 1992 Planned Parenthood vs. Casey case that provides rights before fetal viability.
The Supreme Court stood by their rulings in both cases.

What would happen if all liberals were aborted? The United States would be a free society again and communism would have no place in our society.
The same that would happen if gays were forced to mate only with their own kind, instead of feeding off the produced life force of people of CREATION. They like the DoDo birds of the 1800s would dissappear from the planet.
I would LOVE TO post birth abort EVERY LIBTARD, commucrat and marxist!!! OH and include the entire LGTBTQSIVU)ACER folk too.
Amazing how the liberal minds blanch pale to refuse to execute murderers and terrorists, yet go out of their way to mount attacks to destroy innocent life in the womb. The definition of Liberal when applied in this and other social situations equals criminal, and at best selective murderers. Who in their right-mind would put them into power over your own adult life whose life force in their failed political policies gets destroyed and socially thrown away like so much defiled carrion unfit for food of their liberal gods who only take the best of what WE THE PEOPLE produce?
Senseless Emotionally drive Sotomayor seeks to block the Texas abortions because her court needs more time to consider the arguments? Just what have they been doing for the past 40 years since the Roe v Wade abomination which placed then only 10-15% of the radical liberal left population in postion to control the majority, incessantly arguing to keep their UNCONSITUTIONAL Supreme Court abortion ruling in place. Just what is it about does Article 10 of the Constitution Sotomayor and others do not understand.? Nowhere, in the Constitution is Abortion mentioned, so by default the right to abort falls CLEARLY to the power of the individual states. Those in pathological need to do it will just have to be inconvenienced to travel to a Democrat run state which sanctions such crimes again humanity. Only a Constitutional amendment can force all states to comply and the Supremes know it!
I have often argued that point, WITH liberals before.. WHY ARE THEY so against executing the truly GUILTY OF society, but don’t even bat an eyelid, about the killing of INNOCENCE….
It’s the liberals who are aborting their gifts from God and that just makes for a smaller voting population for them. I don’t think they see the light yet.
