Supreme Court Rejects Montana's Bid to Revive Parental Consent Law for Minors' Abortions

MONTANA, UNITED STATES, JUL 3 – The Supreme Court's refusal leaves in place a Montana ruling that struck down a 2013 parental consent abortion law, upheld by a 2024 voter-approved amendment protecting minors' privacy rights.

  • The U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear Montana's bid to revive a law requiring parental consent for minors to obtain abortions.
  • Montana's law prevents doctors from providing abortions to minors without notarized consent from a parent or guardian, with penalties like fines or jail time.
  • While Montana largely protects abortion access post-Roe v. Wade and its state constitution recognizes abortion rights, the state argued parental consent is valid under the 14th Amendment.
