Roe_Vs._Wade

Roe Vs. Wade Roe vs. Wade influenced the country more than was expected. The question presented was does the Constitution cover a woman’s right to terminate her pregnancy by abortion' The court held that a woman’s right to an abortion fell within the right to privacy protected by the Fourteenth Amendment. “ The decision gave a woman total control over the first trimester and specified different levels of state interest for the second and third trimesters. The right to privacy was not meant to be the main idea of the case, but was brought up with the abortion concept. Another question asked is if the unborn fetus has any constitutional rights' According to the Fourteenth Amendment , “ All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the Unites States and of the State wherein they reside.” Here the rights of the woman are shown but nothing about an unborn baby. The Fourteenth Amendment guarantees personal liberty, which includes the woman and the unborn fetus. It was considered the most essential in Supreme Court history.
