Roe v. Wade, decided by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1973, established a woman's legal right to abortion under the right to privacy. This landmark ruling effectively legalized abortion nationwide and set a framework for regulating abortion based on the trimester of pregnancy. However, in June 2022, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, ending federal protections for abortion rights and allowing individual states to regulate or ban the procedure, leading to significant variations in access across the country.
