22 States Would Protect Unborn Babies From Abortions if Roe v. Wade is Overturned
“For years, legal experts have thrown out predictions about which states may ban abortions and which may continue allowing unborn babies to be aborted.
Here’s more from the report:
As of now, four states — Louisiana, Mississippi and North and South Dakota — have what are known as abortion “trigger laws.” Those laws — passed long after Roe was handed down — would make abortion illegal if and when the Supreme Court were to say Roe is no more.
“They are designed to make abortion illegal immediately,” said Myrick.
Another dozen or so states still have pre-Roe abortion bans on the books.
Some have been formally blocked by the courts, but not repealed. Those bans could, at least in theory, be reinstated, although “someone would have to go into court and ask to lift that injunction,” said Myrick.

States could simply begin enforcing other bans that were never formally blocked, like one in Alabama that makes abortion providers subject to fines and up to a year in jail.
At the same time, Myrick said, “there are 20 states where abortion would probably remain safe and legal.”
Myrick’s estimate of 22 is a liberal one. Just last year, the radical pro-abortion group NARAL predicted 13 states would immediately ban abortions if Roe is overturned.”
