The main issue in "Roe V. Wade" is whether Articles 1191, 1192, 1193, 1194, and 1196 of the Texas Penal Code ( the Texas Abortion Laws) deprive married couples and single women of the right to choose whether to have children, a privacy issued protected by the 14th Amendment. Or, Does the Texas law which makes it a crime to perform an abortion unless it is "necessary" to save the life of the mother violate the Constitution?
