Your statement is misleading: while it is true that some states had laws on the books that prohibited abortion prior to Roe v. Wade, it is incorrect to suggest that these laws were in effect "under Roe." After the Supreme Court's ruling, these laws were no longer enforceable and were effectively invalidated by the decision.And yet, under Roe, 47 states had bans on abortions.
