Assessing the Impact of a Year Without Roe v. Wade.

Anti-abortion activists celebrated the first anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision to eliminate the national right to abortion, while acknowledging the challenges ahead. The ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization sent the issue back to the states, shuttering some clinics, prompting others to open, and setting up new battles over abortion pills, miscarriage care, and contraception. Legal abortions declined more than 6 percent in the first six months after the ruling. Pro-abortion rights advocates also rallied support at events across the country, emphasizing support for abortion access among Republicans and independents.
