The ban was blocked as long as Roe v Wade was the law of the land, but went into effect after the US supreme court overturned Roe in 2022.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">With the decision, abortions past six weeks can resume in the state.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Many women, McBurney wrote, do not even know they are pregnant at six weeks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">\u201cFor these women, the liberty of privacy means that they alone should choose whether they serve as human incubators for the five months leading up to viability,\u201d McBurney wrote. \u201cIt is not for a legislator, a judge, or a Commander from The Handmaid\u2019s Tale to tell these women what to do with their bodies during this period when the fetus cannot survive outside the womb any more so than society could \u2013 or should \u2013 force them to serve as a human tissue bank or to give up a kidney for the benefit of another.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">In a footnote, McBurney added: \u201cThere is an uncomfortable and usually unspoken subtext of involuntary servitude swirling about this debate, symbolically illustrated by the composition of the legal teams in this case. It is generally men who promote and defend laws like the Life Act, the effect of which is to require only women \u2013 and, given the socio-economic and demographic evidence presented at trial, primarily poor women, which means in Georgia primarily black and brown women \u2013 to engage in compulsory labor, ie, the carrying of a pregnancy to term at the government\u2019s behest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">McBurney\u2019s ruling arrives weeks after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propublica.org\/article\/georgia-abortion-ban-amber-thurman-death\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">ProPublica reported<\/a> that two Georgia women died after being unable to access legal abortions in the months after Roe was overturned.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2024\/sep\/30\/georgia-abortion-ban-overturned\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Georgia judge on Monday struck down the state\u2019s six-week abortion ban, ruling that the ban is unconstitutional and blocking it from being enforced.
