1973 United States Supreme Court case
Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973), was a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in which the Court ruled that the Constitution of the United States protects a pregnant woman's liberty to choose to have an abortion without excessive government restriction. The decision struck down many U.S. federal and state abortion laws. wikipedia.org
- Date decided: January 22, 1973
- Decision: Opinion (7-2)
- Holding: The Due Process Clause of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution provides a fundamental "right to privacy" that protects a pregnant woman's liberty to choose whether to have an abortion. This right is not absolute, and must be balanced against the government's interests in protecting women's health and protecting prenatal life. The Texas law making it a crime to procure an abortion violated this right.
- Majority opinion authored by: Harry Blackmun, joined by Warren E. Burger, William O. Douglas, William J. Brennan Jr., Potter Stewart, Thurgood Marshall, Lewis F. Powell Jr.
- Dissent: Byron White, joined by William Rehnquist
- Overruled by: Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization (2022), which holds that the Constitution does not confer a right to abortion
