Georgia Governor Brian Kemp
Georgia passed and briefly enacted a fetal heartbeat law that restricted abortions once a heartbeat can be detected, typically around 6 weeks.
Federal courts suspended the law, declaring it unconstitutional. With the Supreme Court’s ruling, the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta will allow the law to go back in effect.
In a statement on Twitter, Kemp called the decision a “historic victory for life”.
