    Wisconsin Supreme Court Overturns 19th Century Abortion Ban

    Henry Redman

    A narrow majority of justices found that by regulating abortion, legislators had “impliedly repealed” the state’s near-total ban on the procedure. Dissenters called the ruling pure policymaking.

    “Thanks to our lawsuit, today’s decision affirms that access to reproductive healthcare will continue to be available, helping ensure Wisconsin women today are not forced to face firsthand what it’s like to live in a state that bans nearly all abortions, even in cases of rape and incest,” Gov. Tony Evers said in a statement.

    “Those are really big threats, because medication abortion is really the method of choice across the country,” said Christina Chang, executive director of the Reproductive Freedom Alliance that Democratic governors created to better coordinate their efforts after the fall of Roe. “Two thirds of abortions are medication abortions nationwide, and it’s a critical access point for people who are living in rural communities or other care deserts.”
