White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said overturning Roe v. Wade was an “unconstitutional action by” the Supreme Court. It was entirely constitutional for the court to rule as it did.
Jean-Pierre was responding to a question suggesting the White House had been slow in issuing executive orders on abortion access.
Although many Americans have joined Jean-Pierre and the Biden White House in disagreeing with the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, it is widely accepted that the court was acting within its powers. . In 1803, the court wrote that"it is emphatically the duty of the Judicial Department to say what the law is.""If a 10-year-old became pregnant as a result of rape and it was threatening her life, then that’s not an abortion.""There is no question the court had the power to do what it did" in overturning Roe v. Wade, Zick said.

How Abortion Bans Will Stifle Health Care InnovationInvestment in what is typically called “FemTech” – defined as diagnostic tools, products, and services related to women’s health — has exploded over the past decade. Some of the most promising ventures have been focused on reproductive care. Then came the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. The legal and policy restrictions on reproductive health care that result from this decision will not only have swift impact on people who can get pregnant and their families, it will also undermine critical areas of research, innovation, and progress toward more equitable health care outcomes. Among the areas of concern: fertility treatments like IVF; personal data collection and the ability to drive research; a limiting of new investment and curbing of health care innovation more broadly; and the introduction of new obstacles for women founders.
