When Roe v. Wade was overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court, Wisconsinites lost a fundamental right.

Today, the oldest abortion ban in the nation, from 1849, is the law in Wisconsin.

The ban means doctors and nurses could be charged with felonies and sent to prison for providing abortion care.

And politicians instead of people are in charge of reproductive care decisions.

By passing the Restore Roe Act, our state legislature could repeal the 1849 abortion ban and restore fundamental rights and freedoms for millions of Wisconsinites.
