Fearing a case that goes all the way to the Supreme Court and overturns Roe v. Wade—which would leave abortion’s legality up to each state—pro-abortion politicians across the country are working to enshrine abortion in individual state laws.
Most of the proposed state-level laws follow the template of New York’s so-called Reproductive Health Act, which was passed in 2019 on the 46th anniversary of Roe v. Wade and eliminated virtually all restrictions on abortion in New York. The RHA makes abortion legal at any time, including the last trimester of pregnancy, allows abortions to be performed by medical practitioners who are not doctors, and removed abortion from the criminal code.
