Roe v. Wade 50th Anniversary
Jan. 22 would have marked half a century since the landmark 1973 ruling, but instead it highlights the changing landscape of reproductive rights in America. Abortion has almost been entirely banned in 13 states since last year's Supreme Court decision to strip the constitutional right to the procedure. Though pro-life activists have been galvanized by the outcome and subsequent restrictions, a renewed fight over the access to abortion pills is gaining significant momentum.
