In less than 24 hours since the Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade, abortion has already been made illegal or heavily restricted in at least 11 states.
The end of Roe has sparked speculation — including by President Biden — that other landmark rulings could now be on shaky ground, including those that legalized same-sex marriage and birth control.
Researchers have found that the rates of abortion are basically the same in countries where the procedure is broadly legal and those where it's prohibited.
