In 1973, the Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution protects a woman's right to have an abortion. Jane Roe, a pseudonym for Norma McCorvey, challenged a Texas law that criminalized abortion except to save the mother's life. The Court's 7-2 decision established a trimester framework that would shape American law for nearly fifty years. This episode traces the legal arguments, the justices' reasoning, and the lasting impact of one of the most consequential rulings in Supreme Court history.
