“I am heartbroken for the people around this country who just lost the fundamental right to make informed decisions about their own bodies,” Mrs. Obama said in a statement.

Former President Donald Trump, who was strongly courted by conservative Christians, credits divine intervention for the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, stripping constitutional protects for abortion rights in America.

The Supreme Court has ended constitutional protections for abortion that had been in place nearly 50 years in a decision by its conservative majority to overturn Roe v. Wade. Friday’s outcome is expected to lead to abortion bans in roughly half the states.

With cheers and celebration, a new Reproductive Health Act was signed into law by Gov. Andrew Cuomo allowing late-term abortions—up until a baby’s due date if a woman’s health is at risk. It is highly controversial.
