U.S. Supreme Court Reverses Roe v. Wade Abortion Protections – Control Over Abortion Access Will Now Shift to the States

Jackson Women’s Health Organization issued on June 24, 2022 overturned the nearly 50-year precedent set by Roe v. Wade. This decision immediately reverts authority to the individual states to control abortion access and related issues.
