1:51Now PlayingState and local leaders took action to safeguard abortion rights in wake of Supreme Court's decision that overturned Roe v. Wade.
RELATEDBiden gives remarks after Roe v. Wade is overturned by Supreme Court | USA TODAY
In a decision with enormous consequences for reproductive rights, the Supreme Court on Friday overruled its landmark Roe decision that established a constitutional right to abortion in 1973. Though that will make it more difficult for millions of Americans to obtain the procedure, it won’t end the legal wrangling over how far conservative states may go to try to curb abortion more broadly.
Experts predict new laws and lawsuits will quickly crop up over whether states can clamp down on medication abortions, which account for 54% of terminated pregnancies. Some conservative lawmakers are flirting with banning people from obtaining an abortion in more liberal states. Other lawsuits will probably emerge challenging abortion laws under state constitutions.
