Supreme Court allows states to refuse abortion funding and fund welfare
The court ruled 6-3 that states are not required to pay for elective abortions, upholding that equal protection and the Social Security Act do not compel funding. It also held 6-3 that states may opt to provide welfare benefits to families of striking workers, withHEW regulations allowing state choice and no universal standard. Dissenters criticized the decision as harmful to impoverished pregnant women.
