Post-Viability Abortion Restriction

Connecticut's post-viability restriction states that no abortion may be provided after viability unless necessary to preserve the woman's life or health.  Conn. Gen. Stat. Ann. § 19a-602(b) (Enacted 1990).

NARAL Pro-Choice America supports the legal framework established in Roe v. Wade and does not oppose restrictions on post-viability abortion, such as Connecticut's, that contain adequate exceptions to protect the woman's life and health.

25 percent of Connecticut counties have no abortion provider
