Vox: “In line with the Guttmacher Institute, a pro-reproductive rights analysis crew, and to information studies monitoring fresh anti-abortion law, 22 states have already got rules at the books that both ban abortion outright or ban it very early in a being pregnant.”
“Those aren’t simply the so-called ‘cause rules,’ which can be designed to temporarily take impact with minimum to no legislative effort if Roe is overturned. Oklahoma and several other different states nonetheless have abortion bans from ahead of 1973, when Roe used to be at the start passed down, that had been by no means repealed all over the half-century wherein Roe avoided them from running. Different states have handed new abortion bans since 1973.”
“The explanation those extant bans haven’t been enforced is that any one charged with violating them would have gained in court docket, as a result of Roe forbids states from banning abortions. With out Roe, then again, that might not be the case.”
