A Preview of What Happens at State Level If Roe v. Wade Falls

What will happen at the state level if the Supreme Court overturns its 1973 ruling in Roe v. Wade? Can we expect more lawsuits like those we've seen in Kentucky and other states that recently passed pro-life legislation?

Americans are waiting for the Supreme Court to announce its ruling in the case of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which could overturn Roe and send the issue of abortion back to the states to regulate.

In anticipation of a change in federal abortion law, pro-life leaders are seeing a “ton of activity at the states,” says Sarah Parshall Perry, a senior legal fellow at The Heritage Foundation. (The Daily Signal is Heritage's multimedia news organization.)

Perry joins this episode of “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain what likely will happen in conservative and liberal states across the country if the high court strikes down Roe.
