In June 2022, a survey of U.S. adults found nearly half of respondents indicated that they would not like to see the Supreme Court overturn its decision on Roe. 33 percent of respondents felt that it should be overturned, with 19 percent indicating that they were not sure.

Roe v. Wade is the Supreme Court case that protects a woman’s right to seek abortion services in the United States.

This survey was conducted before the Supreme Court officially overturned Roe v. Wade. Support for the decision to overturn Roe can be found here.
