Roe (P), a pregnant single woman, brought a class action suit challenging the constitutionality of the Texas abortion laws. These laws made it a crime to obtain or attempt an abortion except on medical advice to save the life of the mother.
Other plaintiffs in the lawsuit included Hallford, a doctor who faced criminal prosecution for violating the state abortion laws; and the Does, a married couple with no children, who sought an injunction against enforcement of the laws on the grounds that they were unconstitutional. The defendant was county District Attorney Wade (D).
I don't agree with making abortion illegal. There maybe many reasons for why a woman will want to get an abortion. It should be there decision. This law has a lot of debates because we are not only concern about the women we are also concern about the child. What if this law was in place and a women bring a kid to this world an harms them. What if the reason for the abortion is because she was raped. I think this should be a decision for the women but to a certain time frame.
