abortion law
Fetal ending regulations
Abortion law refers to legal regulations governing the termination of pregnancy—when it's permitted, under what circumstances, and with what restrictions.
These laws vary dramatically by jurisdiction, ranging from complete prohibition to unrestricted access.
The state's abortion law bans the procedure after six weeks.
Since the U.S.
Supreme Court's 2022 *Dobbs* decision overturning *Roe v.
Wade*, abortion law has become a patchwork of state-by-state rules rather than a federal standard.
