Roe v. Wade
The decision of Roe v Wade was important for feminists because it protected women's rights to have control over their own bodies. It made it a legal requirement for women to be able to access abortion so that they were not forced to continue an unintended pregnancy against their will or/and at risk to their health, nor did they have to risk their lives by seeking illegal abortion.
Roe v. Wade was a civil case; no crime was committed.

Roe v. Wade
The National Organization for Women was founded in 1966; Roe v. Wade was decided by the Supreme Court in 1973; thus, seven years passed between the founding of NOW and the Court ruling in Roe v. Wade.
The dissenting opinion in Roe v. Wade argued that the Constitution does not explicitly mention a right to abortion and that the decision should be left to individual states rather than decided at the federal level.
Abortion in the United States has been legal in every state since the United States Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade, on January 22, 1973. Prior to "Roe", there were exceptions to the abortion ban in at least 10 states.
