Supreme Court to hear Texas abortion law arguments on procedural elements of challenges

The Supreme Court has agreed to expedite and hear procedural elements of two challenges to Texas' new anti-abortion law, which effectively bans most abortions after six weeks.

One case is the Department of Justice's challenge against the Texas law, and the other is by an organization called Whole Women's Health. 

The questions presented in each case are procedural in nature and will not get to the merits of the Texas law or whether to potentially overturn the major abortion precedent Roe v. Wade.
