What Americans Are Searching for After Roe Reversal

June 26, 2022 at 9:49 am EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

“Google search data shows Americans — particularly those in states most impacted by the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade —are scrambling to figure out where they can still get abortions and what the law means for future access,” Axios reports.

“Those most actively searching were in political battlegrounds like Wisconsin, Michigan and New Hampshire — where there are no existing laws that would immediately ban or codify abortion rights, as well red states Missouri, Kentucky and Utah, where a trigger law has banned the procedure.”

“Searches for ‘abortion clinic near me’ over-indexed in the Southeast, where a number of states had trigger laws on the books.”
