The Big “What If”
The Center for Reproductive Rights has released their 2007 version of their report, “What If Roe Fell?” In 2004, they reported that 30 states were already more or less poised to criminalize abortion if Roe v. Wade was overturned. Now a number of states are creating “bans-in-waiting” that are prepared to ban abortion immediately following a Roe reversal.
And this doesn’t include other bans. For example, 38 bans have been introduced in just 17 states. Additionally, four “bans-in-waiting” have already been passed in Louisiana, Mississippi, North Dakota and South Dakota. Check out the full report here.
Also take a look at the National Institute’s Messaging Project which asks the big question if Roe is overturned: “How much time should she do?”
