A lot. On June 24th, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to overturn Roe v. Wade, which had protected the federal right to an abortion for almost 50 years. The Supreme Court ruled in Dobbs vs. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that the Mississippi state law that bans most abortions after 15 weeks could stand. Instead of allowing women to make their own decisions about whether to have an abortion, that decision-making power now rests with state governments.
Your ability to get an abortion is now dependent on where you live and what you can afford. When Roe fell thirteen states had pre-existing “trigger laws”, intended to ban or restrict abortion if Roe was overturned. Other states had abortion laws on the books that were so old, they were written before women could vote. And many other states like Indiana and West Virginia moved quickly to enact new legislation.
