A resolution celebrating the historic anniversary of the June 24, 2022, decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization.

Key Points

• This resolution marks the fourth anniversary of the Supreme Court decision that ended the federal right to an abortion. It officially celebrates the ruling and the authority it gave back to states to create their own laws.
• The proposal says that the right to life is a basic human right and claims that millions of lives will be saved because of the court's decision. It also praises the work of centers that help women and families during pregnancy.
• It criticizes federal policies that allow abortion pills to be sent through the mail. The senators who wrote this believe those policies make it harder for states to enforce their own local abortion bans.
• Since this is a resolution and not a bill, it does not change any laws or provide new money. It is a formal way for these senators to show their support for the court's ruling and their goal of protecting unborn life.
