Contributing sentiments towards policy:

43% : Again, Univision offers the views of the progressive Guttmacher Institute, "an independent organization that supports women's right to decide about their motherhood" that insists that... "if Roe v. Wade is eventually overturned or weakened, 22 states will pass legislation to ban abortion as soon as possible."Excluded from both Univision.com and Univision News: the fact that canceling Roe vs. Wade means that millions of HISPANIC lives will be saved, including in states like Texas, where according to Univision reports, most of the babies killed by abortion are Latino.3.- Restrictions on travel to another stateUnivision, of course, will go to any length to sow fear and demonize pro-lifers like "Republican Senator Marco Rubio (who) is proposing a law that would prohibit employers from deducting expenses related to their employees' trips to abortions and medical treatment for trans children."
43% : 4.- Beyond abortion, other reproductive rights
40% : The news sounded like a legal earthquake, further fracturing a divided country, now separated by states where abortion will remain legal and those where it will be limited or prohibited.
39% : If the Supreme Court does indeed overturn Roe v. Wade, then it would leave it to the states to decide whether or not to approve abortion.
33% : In liberal states represented here in blue like California, for example, the practice would be protected, but in conservative states in orange, like Texas, abortion would be illegal and there would probably be no immediate impact on other states that have not yet made a decision about it.
30% : A national veto on abortionRather than a national veto on abortion, settling the Dobbs case in favor of overturning Roe vs. Wade will end federalized mandates and shift the decision on abortion laws to elected state governments.
29% : An avalanche of state laws on abortion
