Deborah Fischer, center, sits with a sign at her feet during a rally outside City Hall in Palm Springs, Calif., on Tuesday, May 3, 2022, over concerns that the Supreme Court’s 1973 ruling of Roe Vs. Wade could be overturned. The landmark decision gave pregnant women a new constitutional right to choose abortion.
It’s estimated 69% of Californians believe abortion should be legal, according to a joint 2023 opinion survey conducted in part by Stanford University. Roughly the same percentage of Californians would either make it easier for residents to obtain an abortion (29%) or leave current law permitting abortion for any reason through 24 weeks as is (32%).
