The Supreme Court heard oral arguments regarding a Mississippi case that aims to overturn nearly five decades of precedent on abortion.

Casey ruling in 1992 held that a state cannot ban abortion before fetal viability. “Can’t a decision be overruled because it was wrong when it was decided?” Justice Samuel Alito asked.
"You emphasized that if 15 weeks were approved, then we’d have cases about 12 and 10 and 8 and 6, and so my question is, is there a line in there that the government believes would be principled or not?” Justice Neil Gorsuch asked.
