These are the US states where the right to abortion would be under threat after the annulment of Roe vs. Wade

Several states will protect access to abortion despite the Court's ruling 1:31

(CNN) –– 

The United States Supreme Court made a decision on Friday that will transform the landscape of women's reproductive health: annul the ruling of Roe v.

Wade who decriminalized abortion.

The judgment of Roe vs.

Wade, in 1973, had upheld the right to receive an abortion under the 14th Amendment, ruling that abortions are constitutionally protected until approximately the 23rd week, when a fetus can normally live outside the womb.

Last year, the Supreme Court agreed to review an objection to Mississippi's law banning abortions after 15 weeks.

Precisely, a case that paved the way for the high court to examine decades of precedent established by Roe v.

Wade.

Some state legislatures have enacted policies to increase access to abortion.

For example, California passed a law in March to eliminate additional costs for abortion services that health plans cover.

And in Colorado, Democratic lawmakers codified the state's right to receive an abortion.

States that have limited access to abortion

However, many Republican-led state legislatures have already taken steps to limit abortion access.

Meanwhile, others are preparing to implement restrictive laws that have not been enforced since Roe was passed.

In total, according to an analysis by the Guttmacher Institute, 23 states have laws that limit access to abortion, including several with multiple provisions.

States like Michigan, Wisconsin, and West Virginia had restrictions on abortion before Roe v.

Wade that was never removed.

Others have passed near total bans or laws criminalizing abortion after a certain number of weeks.

But the courts blocked many of these measures, including those in Alabama, Georgia, Iowa, Ohio and South Carolina.

Lawmakers in 13 states have passed ineffective laws banning abortion, but designed to take effect if Roe v.

These are the states with those kinds of laws ready to go into effect almost immediately.

Arkansas

Arkansas has a law on record that would ban nearly all abortions upon court reversal, except in the case of a life-threatening medical emergency.

A health professional who breaks the law could face up to 10 years in prison, a fine of up to $100,000, or both.

In March, Idaho lawmakers passed another regulation modeled on Texas' restrictive abortion law, which bans the procedure once some fetal heart activity can be detected.

Which can happen as early as six weeks.

The law also allows family members of the fetus to sue the medical provider who terminated the pregnancy.

The state Supreme Court blocked this ban after abortion providers challenged the law in a lawsuit.
