Supreme court decision actually makes it possible for states to go either way.
Per the decision, states are free to expand rights to abortion beyond current as well.
I am not aware of any that have tried it yet, but states could, if they thought it was politically viable, enshrine a right to post-birth abortion (live birth infanticide), and it could be legal, assuming the penal code was adjusted to match.
