Linda Greenhouse in The New York Times, May 17, 2024, speculates about the Supreme Court”s position on state laws that prohibit providing information about where to get an abortion. The court recently struck down a California law requiring anti-abortion clinics to provide information on where women could get abortions. The court called it unconstitutional compelled speech. Now it could soon rule on whether it can be illegal to give abortion-related advice. Greenhouse says, “…the justices would face the acute dilemma of reconciling their fealty to the First Amendment with the profound anti-abortion sentiment the Dobbs majority opinion displayed.”
