Wisconsin Supreme Court to consider whether 175-year-old law bans abortion
- The Wisconsin Supreme Court has chosen to review two challenges to a 175-year-old law that some claim prohibits abortion without going through lower courts.
- The cases question if the state's 1849 law does indeed bar abortion and if abortion is a protected right by the state Constitution.
- The 2022 U.S. Supreme Court decision on Roe v. Wade led to the activation of Wisconsin's 1849 law, criminalizing intentional destruction of an unborn child's life, excluding the mother.
