| 0:00.0 | So they did it. They finally did it. The Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in a six to three vote today. |
| 0:06.0 | With the decision stemming from that case in Mississippi involving a law in the state, the banned abortion at 15 weeks, |
| 0:10.5 | with the law having been challenged on the grounds that it was against the Supreme Court precedent on |
| 0:13.4 | fetal viability, which is the point when the fetus can live outside the womb, which is usually |
