The US Supreme Court's decision didn't outlaw abortions. It simply revealed
that abortions are not a true Constitutional right nor have they ever been a
true Constitutional right. The 1972 Court overstepped its bounds by
associating abortions with the right to privacy when there is no right to
privacy in the US Constitution.
States now have the authority to define their own abortion laws; which is
where abortion controls were supposed to be centralized in the first place in
accord with the Tenth Amendment; which says:
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor
prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to
the people.
