The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists' amicus brief is the clearest document on the issue which I've found online. It explains in plain language the safety advantages of the banned procedure(s), which may include prevention of "massive hemorrhaging, serious infection, and subsequent infertility" which can lead to damage to the brain and other organs. The ban allows no exceptions to prevent those outcomes; the woman's health is expendable.

ACOG's press release states: "The Supreme Court's action today, though stunning, in many ways isn't surprising given the current culture in which scientific knowledge frequently takes a back seat to subjective opinion." That should ring a bell with those of us interested in global warming or the teaching of evolution.
