US lawyers who have had abortions file Supreme Court brief

More than 360 American women who have had abortions and work in the legal profession, including several high-profile attorneys, have filed a brief with the Supreme Court ahead of a closely watched abortion case. "I write because I want the Court to know how access to safe and legal abortion made my law career possible and changed my life," said one of the 368 signatories to the brief filed with the court on Monday. The nine-member Supreme Court is to hear a challenge in March to a restrictive abortion law in the state of Louisiana.
