How The U.S. Would Compare To Other Countries If Roe Is Overturned

The U.S. would be an outlier on the global stage for rolling back abortion rights, but it's also an exception at the moment with Roe v. Wade.

Days away from a highly-expected Supreme Court decision on abortion, tension in the nation’s capital and beyond is sky high. 

If the leaked opinion overturning Roe v. Wade becomes final, the U.S. would join a tiny club of countries that have restricted abortion in recent years.

According to the Center for Reproductive Rights, which advocates for abortion access, only three countries have scaled back access since 1994: Poland, Nicaragua and El Salvador.
