The US Supreme Court has declined multiple opportunities to overturn longstanding precedents regarding protest-free buffer zones outside abortion clinics. In a series of recent rulings, the court rejected challenges aimed at dismantling laws designed to keep abortion opponents at a distance from clinics and patients. This decision reinforces the protections in place that allow individuals seeking reproductive health services to access clinics without facing aggressive protest activities. Justice Thomas reiterated calls for reevaluating such precedents but was not supported in this latest round of deliberations.
