Anti-abortion movement takes stock on second anniversary of Dobbs

Anti-abortion advocates say their movement has made significant progress in the two years since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization case in June 2022, but they say their fight is far from over.

“For 50 years under Roe, states have been unable to protect life up until viability, and it was a regime that was more liberal toward abortion or more permissive toward abortion than almost every country in the world,” Erin Hawley, senior counsel at Alliance Defending Freedom, told the Washington Examiner in an exclusive interview. “So this was an extremely permissive regime of abortion, and Dobbs changed all that.”
