Roe v. Wade

Nearly a year after the U.S. Supreme Court rolled back abortion rights, the nation's most prominent abortion provider says it will rethink its structure and cut staff.

When she gave birth to her baby with a fatal condition two months early, Samantha Casiano scrambled to raise funds for the funeral. Anti-abortion advocates say Texas laws are 'working as designed.'

In the first lawsuit of its kind since Roe v. Wade was overturned, a husband seeks damages from women who helped his ex-wife obtain the medications to terminate her pregnancy.

Roe attested that people who could become pregnant in the United States had a fundamental right to choose whether to have abortions.

A new report assessed the impact of laws in the 15 states that have banned or heavily restricted abortion since June 24.

Nationally, Black people giving birth are three times more likely to die than their white counterparts, and twice as likely in Texas. That concerns reproductive justice advocates, who fear these outcomes will worsen now that Roe v. Wade is overturned, and people can’t access abortion services.

More than 100 military installations are in states where abortion is now banned.

Since the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, Texas cities have taken action to reaffirm support for abortion rights. Last month, Austin approved a resolution decriminalizing the procedure. Cities like Dallas and San Antonio are now discussing moves of their own.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton argues the Biden administration is violating the state’s “sovereign interest” by reassuring the nation’s doctors they can perform abortions in medical emergencies.

Some women who live in states that will make abortion more restrictive now that the Supreme Court overturned Roe V. Wade may decide to travel to Canada to obtain the procedure, straining capacity.
