On March 2nd, 2022, a Supreme Court draft majority opinion was leaked, indicating the Supreme Court would likely overturn Roe v. Wade (1973). That decision was confirmed on June 24, 2022. Washington State Law includes protections for abortions which means this decision will not have an impact in this state. Media reports have stated Governor Inslee’s desire to seek a Washington State constitutional amendment to further solidify these rights. However, no language has been made available at this time.
