The Other S. Court Case | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: Many Catholics are pleased with both decisions - both the latte hedge fund case and the denial of the right to life movement of yet another opportunity to overturn Roe by allowing the supremacy of state jurisprudence in this area of law (equal protection) rather than leaving it in federal hands.  I bet if Congress passed a 20 week (or more likely a 28 week) abortion law redefining what can be done in all succeeding weeks, it would be regarded as constitutional.  Whether any change in the status quo on the criminalization side is good policy is an entirely different question.  Many Catholics believe it pretty much is not and that giving more money to families as they add more children - enough to maintain their current lifestyle (or increase it) is a much better solution to the question of abortion.  Congress can do that to (and so can the states).
