Wade<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In place since 1973, Roe v. Wade was a Supreme Court legal case ruling that protected abortion as a constitutional right.\u00a0<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This year, the Supreme Court decided that abortion would no longer be considered a right granted by the constitution. The overturn of Roe v. Wade means that abortion is no longer federally protected. The rules surrounding abortion will now rest largely in the hands of each individual state.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Understandably, you may have questions about what the Roe v. Wade overturn means for access to abortions in Minnesota. If so, you\u2019re not alone. You may wonder, is abortion still legal in Minnesota?\u00a0<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s normal to have questions and fears about your options after the Supreme Court ruling, especially if you\u2019re experiencing an unexpected pregnancy.<\/span> \u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><b>Abortions in Minnesota<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although abortion is no longer constitutionally protected, there are Minnesota laws that protect abortion.<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.revisor.mn.gov\/statutes\/cite\/145.4242\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow external noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Abortion<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is still legal in Minnesota and<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.state.mn.us\/people\/womeninfants\/abortion\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow external noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> protected by the Minnesota constitution<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> despite the overturn of Roe v. Wade.\u00a0<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, abortion rights have not changed for Minnesotans who experience an ectopic pregnancy, require abortion for miscarriage management, or choose to undergo an elective abortion.\u00a0<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Minnesota&#8217;s abortion laws mean for surrounding states is that higher volumes of clients from other states may seek abortion care in Minnesota if abortion is illegal in their home state.\u00a0<\/span> \u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><b>How Pregnancy Choices is Responding to the Overturn of Roe v.
