Georgia Judge Lifts Abortion Ban After Deaths of Two Women — ProPublica

"It is not for a legislator, a judge, or a Commander from 'The Handmaid's Tale' to tell these women what to do with their bodies during this period when the fetus cannot survive outside the womb," McBurney's ruling states. 

"The Court finds that, until the pregnancy is viable, a woman's right to make decisions about her body and her health remains private and protected, i.e., remains her business and her business alone. When someone other than the pregnant woman is able to sustain the fetus, then — and only then — should those other voices have a say in the discussion about the decisions the pregnant woman makes concerning her body and what is growing within it."
