Reproductive Health Care in Wisconsin
The U.S. Supreme Court's ruling that overturns Roe v. Wade means that Wisconsin's 1849 law banning abortions comes into effect making abortions illegal in the state. This loss of bodily autonomy and healthcare has made it dangerous for people to be pregnant in Wisconsin. Until changes are made to existing law, accommodations are needed to provide comprehensive health care to Wisconsin residents. Below are some resources for Wisconsin residents to find reproductive health care in Illinois and Minnesota.
