Prometheus 6

Quote of note:

...three decades of impassioned, interminable argument have somehow congealed into a collective fantasy about what the reversal of Roe would mean - how the American abortion brawl would be over, lost or won, depending on one's point of view, but over. Wrong.

Imagine a Nation Without Roe v. Wade
By CYNTHIA GORNEY

FOR anyone interested in dodging partisan rhetoric long enough to think seriously about the coming decade in the American abortion battle, some of the most illuminating reading right now can be found on a chart. It's a partisans' chart, to be sure; the information that fills its tables was compiled by the New York-based Center for Reproductive Rights, whose lawyers have been arguing abortion cases for more than two decades.

But take a quick look down the column on the left, Existence and Status of Abortion Ban. That's ban, not regulation. Old abortion laws, unenforceable under Roe v. Wade, remain in the statute books of more than a dozen states.
