And even if Roe, which made abortion legal nationwide, is not overturned, a ruling on this case in favor of Louisiana could be nearly the same as if it had been, warned Jen Dalven, director of the ACLU's Reproductive Freedom Project.
"For thousands of women, the result would be exactly the same as if you overturned Roe v. Wade," Dalven said. "It's a sneaky, stealthy way to deny abortion access for thousands and thousands of women without having to get that headline."
Thursday night's vote was the first time that Trump's two nominees had to address their views on abortion since their Senate confirmation hearings. During those hearings, Kavanaugh and Gorsuch said they viewed Roe as settled law.
In a move that alarmed civil rights groups, both men said Thursday that they would have allowed the Louisiana law to take effect.
