Abortion could return to Supreme Court after federal judge finds constitutional right to health-preserving abortion

A federal judge in Idaho ruled that the 14th Amendment protects a right to health-preserving abortion, including mental health, directly challenging the scope of Dobbs. The case is expected to be appealed to the Supreme Court, potentially becoming the vehicle for the conservative majority to define the limits of state abortion bans. Legal experts describe it as a 'slow erosion' of Dobbs.
