In the mid-19th century, abortion was widely practiced by American women, primarily by using abortifacients which are herbs and substances that induce abortion. • The first abortion law was codified in the state of Connecticut in 1821 that forbade the use of poisons in abortion. • By the early 1900s, abortion was made illegal in every state, some of which included an exception for pregnancies that put the mothers in danger. • Over the next several decades, despite legal punishments, abortion continued to occur, mostly underground. • In 1964, Gerri Santoro, an American woman who died due to an illegal abortion, became the symbol of an abortion-rights movement. • By 1972, abortion laws were reformed nationwide. • In 1973, the US Supreme Court repealed all existing criminal abortion laws with its landmark Roe v. Wade decision in favor of Jane Roe, holding that a pregnant woman has a fundament right to abortion. • In the 1992 Planned Parenthood v. Casey, the Supreme Court while upholding the Constitutional right to abortion, overturned the trimester framework and articulated an “undue burden” standard. • On June 24, 2022, both Roe and Casey were overruled by the Supreme Court in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization on the ground that the Constitution does not confer a right to abortion,” marking an end to the federal abortion rights and returning the authority to regulate abortion to individual states. • Do you support the anti-abortion activists or the abortion-rights activists? • Tell us in the comment section below. • ► Thanks for watching! • ------------------------------------------------ • ► Don’t forget to SUBSCRIBE for more videos every day: https://bit.ly/2O870K8 • ------------------------------------------------ • Source in our video: • https://commons.wikimedia.org • https://upload.wikimedia.org • https://www.pexels.com • https://en.wikipedia.org • https://cdn10.picryl.com • https://www.flaticon.com • https://www.freepik.com • https://www.pexels.com
