Dick Morris, speaking on Newsmax, highlighted the evolving landscape of abortion access in the United States following the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
Contrary to concerns that the decision would drastically limit access to abortions, Morris pointed out that the availability of abortion services remains intact, with the number of procedures reportedly increasing by 10% this year.
This suggests that despite legal and political changes, women are finding ways to access abortion services, possibly by crossing state lines where regulations may differ.

The discussion also touched upon the legal environment post-Roe, where states have been empowered to set their abortion policies, a principle known as federalism.
This shift has led to a varied legal landscape across the country, with states like Florida implementing a 15-week abortion ban while also leaving room for the issue to be revisited through public voting measures.

Morris also referred to former President Donald Trump’s support for a 15-week abortion limit as reflective of a broader consensus among Americans, suggesting a middle ground in the nation’s abortion debate.
This perspective underscores the complexity of abortion access in a post-Roe America, where state autonomy over abortion laws has led to a mosaic of regulations that both restrict and protect abortion rights.
