A U.S. Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade would suddenly give all 50 states the power to decide when or if abortion should be legal. But that won't just be a question for lawmakers - state courts, attorneys general, even district attorneys will be thrust into the front lines of this debate, as WABE's Sam Gringlas reports.
SAM GRINGLAS, BYLINE: As news of the draft ruling spread, Democratic attorneys general pledged to fight back. In Michigan, Attorney General Dana Nessel called a 90-year-old abortion ban still on the books draconian and promised not to enforce it. Here in Georgia, Jen Jordan, a Democratic candidate for attorney general, said she'd challenge a restrictive abortion law in state courts.
