Bottom line, the goal was never just to overturn Roe. It's to erase abortion access everywhere. It's coordinated, strategic effort and it's happening in plain sight here in Wisconsin. The Dobbs decision immediately halted abortion services across our state, not because voters demanded it, but because of a law from 1849, a law written before women had the right to vote, a law that made performing an abortion a felony. Providers here in Wisconsin paused services, unsure if they'd be charged with felonies. Under that 1849 criminal statute. A state judge has since ruled that law targets assault, not voluntary abortion. (02:47–03:05)
