There has been no law banning it to date because of Roe vs Wade. Once that's gone I don't think there is any constitutional bar to a ban.
Somewhat confusingly, I’m talking about the constitutional ban as it now stands, not as it might change… Don’t forget, what we’re talking about this morning is a draft, unpublished ruling that may yet never come to pass. As of right now, the states are not competent to ban abortion, because the supreme court opinion as it presently stands is that abortion is unconstitutional.
