Abstract
This paper explores the history of abortion in the United States, the overturn of Roe v. Wade, maternal mortality in the U.S. prior to and within the post-Roe era, effects of current abortion restrictions, and the overall devastating reality for many marginalized communities in the United States. Abortion remains controversial, especially within the U.S., and has gained widespread attention since the overturn of Roe v. Wade on June 24, 2022. We must acknowledge that Church and State be separated when discussing the topic of reproductive healthcare. The right to bodily autonomy and equal and safe access to reproductive healthcare should not be an issue that is debated or politicized. This topic is crucial, as limited and banned abortion access is life-threatening to many individuals in America. I hope to bring knowledge on the detrimental impacts of abortion restrictions and the vital need for safe and accessible reproductive healthcare for all.
