When did contraceptives become legal?
Contraceptives were initially perfectly legal. The Comstock Act of 1873 prohibited the delivery of contraceptives, prophylactics, and "marital aids" through the US mail. That was probably the first federal law against contraception, though there may have been some state laws against the practice predating the Comstock Act. Connecticut was one of a handful of states that prohibited contraceptives in the 1960s. In 1965 the US Supreme Court ruled that state laws against contraception were violations of our cherished and beloved bill of rights. So for ALL states contraception was legal by 1965, though many (if not most) states had no laws against contraception prior to that.
