Abortion laws in the United States prior to Roe vs. Wade

RED = Illegal.
PURPLE = Legal in cases of rape.
BLUE = Legal in cases of danger to woman's health.
GREEN = Legal in cases of danger to woman's health, rape or incest, or likely damaged fetus.
YELLOW = Legal upon request.

Notice that only four states had abortion on demand prior to 1973.

This is the TRUE pro-choice position on abortion, a narrative that the pro-life movement needs to seize. Overturn Roe v Wade and let the states regulate abortion.

“Overturn Roe v Wade and let the states regulate abortion.”


That would be a good first step, the equivalent of the pre-Civil War U.S., where states had the right to have or not to have slavery. We can’t stop, though, until a Human Life Amendment becomes part of the U.S. Constitution and abortion is outlawed throughout the nation.
