A network of medical clinics that serves low-income residents in Maine says it will shut down its primary care operations on Friday because of Trump administration cuts to abortion providers.

In August, a judge ruled that the state’s near-total abortion ban should not apply to medically complicated pregnancies. The state appealed that ruling to the Texas Supreme Court, putting it on hold.

In 2016, the Supreme Court blocked onerous regulations that had shuttered half of Texas’ abortion providers. On Friday, the court’s new conservative majority cited that case in overturning the constitutional protection for abortion.

It's a crowded scene outside the Supreme Court, where hundreds of abortion debate partisans are trading chants while justices hear highly anticipated arguments inside.

Both sides also say Mondays ruling is not the last word on state-level abortion restrictions. One abortion rights leader evoked the image of playing whack-a-mole as new cases surface. Anti-abortion activists swiftly made clear that Mondays ruling would not dissuade them from continuing to push tough abortion restrictions through state legislatures. In recent years, several states have enacted near-total bans on abortion only to have them blocked by the courts.
