The Supreme Court’s controversial Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision, which was released on June 24, has led to vast disparities in reproductive healthcare access between states. In Wisconsin, the reversal of Roe v. Wade allowed the state’s 173-year-old abortion legislation to be enforced.
Wisconsin’s current abortion legislation comes from an era that had a much less comprehensive understanding of medicine, leaving today’s healthcare practitioners frustrated by unclear language and struggling to apply the law to the modern day.
