The recent case of Yellowhammer Fund v. Attorney General raises concerns about the implications of state powers in restricting abortion-related travel after Roe v. Wade was overturned. Following Alabama's swift criminalization of nearly all abortions, Attorney General Steve Marshall threatened legal action against those aiding abortion seekers. The core argument is centered on the constitutional right to travel, with plaintiffs asserting it encompasses the ability to engage in lawful actions in other states. However, Marshall contends this right is limited to mere movement and does not include broader implications pertaining to abortion services.
The case revolves around the right to travel, a long-standing constitutional principle that the plaintiffs argue includes lawful activities in other states.
Alabama's attorney general, Steve Marshall, argues that the right to travel is narrower and does not extend to activities that are legal in other states.
