- Summary:
- "On June 24, 2022, the United States Supreme Court issued a monumental decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 landmark ruling that established the constitutional right to abortion in the United States. The Court's ruling will not end the debate on abortion in the United States. Instead, the ruling-and reaction to it-is likely to lead to many new court challenges, especially as some lawmakers tighten restrictions on how women obtain reproductive health care. The ruling has set in motion an immense shift in public health policies affecting pregnant women and couples"-- Provided by publisher.
