In a historic ruling, the United States Supreme Court has overturned Roe versus Wade, the landmark decision that legalized abortion nationwide.
The 6-3 ruling was decided along party lines, with the court's conservative majority delivering the opinion. Roe versus Wade has been a flashpoint in the culture wars for decades, and the court's ruling will reignite the debate.
Opponents of abortion argue that it violates human rights, while supporters say it is a woman's right to choose what happens to her own body. The court's ruling will significantly impact women's rights and could lead to more restrictions on abortion access in many states.
