US highest court overturns Roe v Wade
What is the new abortion law in the US?
It is now up to individual states to decide whether or not women will have the right to an abortion.
Some states have what is called a “trigger ban” in place so that abortion is immediately outlawed in almost every situation, once Roe v Wade is overturned.
While some politically progressive states — such as California and Washington — will likely continue to provide access to abortion, other conservative states, such as Mississippi and Arkansas, would immediately make abortion illegal.
Forced illegal abortions
Supporters of abortion access say the procedure would only be accessible to those who could afford to travel to the states where it remains legal.
As news broke of the US highest court overturns Roe v Wade women globally united in disgust at the ruling, setting back equal rights by decades.
They say those who cannot afford to travel would be forced to give birth or may even seek a dangerous, illegal abortion. In some cases, they may be forced illegal abortions.
