The Latest: Davis says ruling makes filibuster 'worth it'

Texas Gov. Gregg Abbott says the Supreme Court's decision striking down his state's strict regulation of abortion clinics "subjects more innocent life to being lost." In a statement Monday, the Republican said the ruling "erodes states' lawmaking authority to safeguard the health and safety of women." Abbott said his state's goal remains "to protect innocent life, while ensuring the highest health and safety standards for women." The justices voted 5-3 Monday in favor of Texas clinics that protested the regulations as a thinly veiled attempt to make it harder for women to get an abortion in the nation's second-most populous state.
