On June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court of the United States voted to overturn the Roe v. Wade decision of 1973. The historical case originally established laws that protected a woman's right to an abortion should they so choose to have one. The decision comes amidst fervent protests against SCOTUS, who have been in talks to repeal the decision since May 2022. The decision to overturn Roe v. Wade is being widely regarded as running back nearly 50 years of women's rights efforts.
