The US state of New York moved to enshrine abortion rights and access to contraception in its constitution on July 1, becoming a vanguard in the pushback against a seismic ruling by the country's Supreme Court that upended reproductive rights nationwide.

US President Joe Biden described as a "tragic mistake" the decision of the country's Supreme Court to revoke the right to abortion, approved 50 years ago.

The Supreme Court is poised to strike down the right to abortion in the United States, according to a bombshell leaked draft of a majority opinion that would shred nearly 50 years of constitutional protections.

The draft opinion was written by Justice Samuel Alito and has been circulating inside the conservative-dominated court since February, the news outlet Politico reported.

In the biggest challenge to abortion rights in decades, the Supreme Court's conservative majority on Dec. 1 signaled they would allow states to ban abortion much earlier in pregnancy and may even overturn the nationwide right that has existed for nearly 50 years.

The U.S. Supreme Court refused on Sept. 2 to block a Texas ban on abortion after six weeks of pregnancy, dealing a major blow to abortion rights by leaving in place a state law that prohibits the vast majority of abortions.
