The parental consent law passed in 2013, but was blocked in court and never took effect before being invalidated last year. [...] Montana’s highest court recognized a right to abortion before the Supreme Court overturned it nationwide, and voters also enshrined it in the Montana Constitution last year. That amendment took effect July 1, 2025.

The SC is all over the place these days.

It’s Montana’s state Supreme Court, not the federal Supreme Court. Two distinct entities under a confusing name scheme.

This is literally the sole hope I have for the USSC. It is still ruinous to the nation, but at least means there are places you will be able to go that aren't utter shitholes.
