The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld South Carolina's ban on funding for Planned Parenthood for non-abortion services, notching a win for conservatives who have long hoped to strip the abortion provider of state financial support.

The justices voted 6-3 in favor of the ban, with Associate Justice Neil Gorsuch authoring the majority opinion. The ruling permits the state to bar Medicaid from issuing reimbursements to the organization for even non-abortion-related procedures and services, such as cancer screenings.
