The mother seeking the abortion is a 17-year-old from Mexico.

Justice Department lawyers argued the government has "strong and constitutionally legitimate interests in promoting childbirth, in refusing to facilitate abortion, and in not providing incentives for pregnant minors to illegally cross the border to obtain elective abortions while in federal custody."
