Overturning Roe would outlaw abortion in ND

By Pat Sweeney May 3, 2022 | 2:51 PM

North Dakota has been poised for years to outlaw abortions if the U.S. Supreme Court overturns its landmark 1973 ruling legalizing the procedure nationwide. A 2007 state law makes it a felony to perform an abortion unless necessary to prevent the woman’s death or in cases of rape or incest. North Dakota is one of about a dozen states, including South Dakota, that have laws that would ban abortion if the U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, as a draft opinion leaked late Monday suggests. North Dakota has just one abortion provider, the Red River Women’s Clinic in Fargo.
