Supreme Court Ruling on Animal Welfare Could Impact Abortion Rights

TL;DR Summary
Experts say a recent Supreme Court decision upholding a California animal welfare law could make it easier for states to impose policy choices on large swaths of the nation. The decision may embolden governors to project their legislation outside of their state, regardless of political affiliation. The ruling did little to clarify what's allowed and what isn't, leaving many concerned about how states will respond. The decision could have implications for issues such as abortion, the environment, and tech.
