There are lots of new laws that will give them that opportunity. With the new conservative justices, this is a real possibility. Polling shows support for Roe v. Wade but the far right doesn’t care what the public wants. The Trump administration has been very hostile to abortion rights. Trump and other Republicans lie about Democratic positions on abortions.
New state laws ban abortion before many women even know they’re pregnant!

"That's called murder. This isn't women's health care. If the baby is born, and it's alive, the woman is no longer at risk," he says. pic.twitter.com/TY4bkcetIq
Babies are rarely born alive after abortion procedures, and if they are, doctors do not kill them. These are the facts behind President Trump’s misleading tweet in the latest abortion battle. https://t.co/Jb4RVaj8fi
