Members of Congress Amicus Brief
-
Amici are 197 members of the United States Congress.

They argue that, as members of Congress, they are bound to support and defend the Constitution, which guarantees the right to personal liberty and bodily autonomy.
-
Act 620 is as unconstitutional as the identical law in the neighboring state of Texas that the Supreme Court struck down in Whole Woman’s Health.
-
Allowing Act 620 to stand will undermine the rule of law and encourage the proliferation of laws that seek to eliminate access to abortion.
-
Stroock & Stroock & Lavan LLP is pro bono counsel.
