“President-elect, Donald Trump, has been adamant about his plans to attempt to reverse the Supreme Court Case, Roe v Wade, when he assumes the office of the President of the United States.” Based off of your understanding of the landmark case, what will now happen to a woman’s choice of whether she wants to have or abort her baby?

It will be impossible to have abortion in every state in the United States, because the law will be rescinded on a federal level.
C
The ruling will not change anything about a woman’s right to make her decision, because it will still be considered a private matter regardless of what happens.
D
Physicians will unite together nationwide to support a woman’s right to either keep or abort her baby because of how Henry Wade sought out members of their profession during the 1970s.
