Abortion policy involves some of the most deeply held values in American life, touching questions of liberty, life, and the role of government.
Since the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision, abortion policy is largely determined at the state level, though Congress continues to debate federal legislation. Some believe abortion access should be protected as a fundamental right under federal law, ensuring consistent access across all states. Others believe restrictions are appropriate and that states should have the authority to set their own policies on the issue.
Higher scores (+) — Voted to protect or expand abortion access — opposing restrictions and supporting federal protections.
