Roe vs Wade

To begin, this had all started when this girl in Texas the law was passed that people couldn’t have abortions unless it’s before the second trimester.

In opposition to pro-choice approval of legalization, an article of the Fordham Law Review, An American Tragedy: The Supreme Court on Abortion, delineates the decision in Roe v. Wade as unconstitutional on the grounds that the Court made egregious errors in the case. Byrn cites a number of mistakes, including the misinterpretation of common law, motivations behind nineteenth century abortion laws, the intent of the founding fathers, factual knowledge of fetuses, along with a disregard for the Supreme Court’s own definition of a person in section one of the fourteenth amendment compounded to generate the erroneous decision in Wade. As current interpretations of the fourteenth amendment include all human beings, especially the marginalized, as protected under the law, the exclusion of unborn children seems
“it's a woman’s right to control her own destiny, to be able to make choices without the Big Brother state telling her what she and cannot do” (Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg). Women have fought for their entire lives for equal rights which for some apparent reasons have not been acknowledged. Roe vs. Wade had changed the outlook on the United States and on a woman’s rights to her own body. Roe vs. Wade goes back to 1973 which was between a women who had an unplanned surgery in Texas who wanted to make abortions legal.

There have been many legal cases dealing with abortion and the laws restricting it. Some of those cases are: Gonzalez v. Carhart and Whole Woman’s Health Care, Planned Parenthood v. Casey, and Roe v. Wade. Roe v. Wade was an abortion case held in 1973 that was tried because of the abortion laws and the requirements to get one. Roe claimed that the laws violated her constitutional rights.

(Roe v. Wade, 1973) In forbidding many federal and state restrictions on abortion in the United States, the Roe versus Wade case sparked a nationwide debate that continues to this day about matters including whether, and to what degree, abortion should be lawful, who should decide its legitimacy, what methods should the Supreme Court use in constitutional decision, and what should the role of religious and ethical observations in the governmental sphere be. Roe versus Wade redesigned national politics, separating much of the United States of America into pro-choice and anti-abortion factions, while triggering popular movements on both sides. But nevertheless abortion still to this day continues to be a right protected by the 14th Amendment.
Imagine you have to be scared about what's going to happen to your own body. This is what women feel now. In some states, women now have fewer rights to their reproductive health than in 1970.

Recently Roe V Wade has been overturned giving the states all power over abortion rights and in turn reproductive rights.
Roe vs. Wade is the highly publicized Supreme Court ruling that overturned a Texas interpretation of abortion law and made abortion legal in the United States. The Roe v. Wade decision held that a woman, with her doctor, has the right to choose abortion in earlier months of pregnancy without legal restriction, and with restrictions in later months, based on the right to privacy. As a result, all state laws that limited women 's access to abortions during the first trimester of pregnancy were invalidated by this particular case. State laws limiting such access during the second trimester were upheld only when the restrictions were for the purpose of protecting the health of the pregnant woman. Roe v. Wade legalized abortion in the greater United States, which was not legal at all in many states and was limited by law in others.
She visited her doctor who then refused performing abortion she requested for. Texas law made abortion illegal except if it was necessary to save a mother’s life. The argument of McCorvey was that the Texas statute infringed on a woman’s fundamental personal right to privacy of abortion. McCovey under the pseudonym of Jane Roe additionally claimed Texas law is not rationally legitimate to private sexual conduct and human life.
Roe v. Wade not only set the ball rolling, but in reality reformed tough laws on a woman’s rights to have a safe abortion. As stated by CNN, abortion has been morphed into something more attainable to women who need it across the board, “The court held that a woman’s right to an abortion fell within the right to privacy (recognized in Griswold v. Connecticut) protected by the Fourteenth Amendment. The decision gave a woman a right to abortion during the entirety of the
Roe filed a lawsuit on wade claiming that a Texas law was criminalizing majority of every abortion. During that time period abortion were really only considered if the pregnancy was considered life threatening to the mother. This court case still remains one of the most intensely debated cases making the House Bill 3994 stand out.

Wade had a lasting and radical impact on the legal landscape of abortion rights in the United States. It decisively struck down most of the restrictions that some states had in place at the time regarding abortion, prohibiting states from restricting access to legal abortion procedures in the first trimester. This momentous decision also pushed many states to start providing Medicaid to women seeking abortions, which remains a temporary standard today. Roe v. Wade is one of the most famous United States Supreme Court cases of all time.
The Right to Abortion On January 22, 1973, in a 7-2 ruling, the U.S. Supreme Court handed down it’s landmark decision in the case of Roe v. Wade, which recognized that the constitutional right to privacy extends to a woman’s right to make her own personal medical decisions — including the decision to have an abortion without interference from politicians (Planned Parenthood). There are many moments in history when Roe v. Wade has been so close to being overturned, yet it is still in place. Abortion should stay legal, or not overturned, for the health of women everywhere. First, this important case took place at the time of abortion being illegal in most states, including Texas, where Roe v. Wade began.
Before Roe v. wade the number of deaths from illegal abortions was around 5000 and in the 50s and 60s the number of illegal abortions ranged from 200,000 to 1.2 million per year. These illegal abortions pose major health risks to the life of the woman including damage to the bladder, intestines as well as rupturing of the uterus. The choice to become a mother must be given to the woman most importantly because it’s her body, her health, and she will be taking on a great responsibility. A woman’s choice to choose abortion should not be restricted by anyone; there are multiple reasons why abortion will be the more sensible decision for the female.
