The law was first passed in 1849 and went back into effect last June when the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. In our special "How We Got Here: Abortion in Wisconsin since 1849," WPR reporters explore how the ban came to be and how Wisconsinites have lived with and without it since. See more at wpr.org/1849.
