Roe v. Wade

The U.S. Supreme Court case of Roe v. Wade was decided on January 22, 1973. The court's decision disallowed most existing state and federal restrictions on abortion in the United States. It held that a mother may abort her pregnancy for any reason up until the point at which the fetus becomes viable. The case decision prompted national debate that continues today.
