The decision was made wiht a 4-3 vote, with justice janet Protasiewicz casting the deciding vote. The case arose after Republican prosecutors sought to enforce the antiquated law, prompting a legal challenge from Democratic officials who argued that subsequent regulations had effectively rendered the 1849 law moot. <\/p>\n<p>The ruling is significant not only for its immediate impact but also as it occurred in the context of <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >highly contested judicial elections<\/a>, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/china-prepares-afghanistan-business-expo-to-unleash-talibans-market-potential\/\" title=\"China Prepares Afghanistan Business Expo to Unleash Taliban&#039;s &#039;Market Potential&#039;\">significant financial backing<\/a> for candidates on both sides-over $100 million was spent on a recent race in Wisconsin, making it the most <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wisconsin-democrats-pump-big-out-of-state-dollars-into-school-board-elections\/\" title=\"...

(The justice who was elected this spring, Susan Crawford, will only be seated on Aug. 1.)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/ap-texas-anti-abortion-law-get-huge-test-three-women-sued-wrongful-death-1-million-damages\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The law<\/a> made anyone other than the pregnant mother &ldquo;who intentionally destroys the life of an unborn child&rdquo; liable for up to six years in jail and a $10,000 fine.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;After the U.S. Supreme Court&rsquo;s decision to overturn Roe returned the regulation of abortion to the states, Gov. Tony Evers and the attorney general, Josh Kaul, both Democrats, sued to invalidate the 1849 ban,&rdquo; the Times reported.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;They argued that it had been effectively repealed over the years by other abortion regulations, including a law that prohibits abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy and one that imposes a 24-hour waiting period for abortions.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The judges agreed, and in a Wednesday decision, the law was struck down.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Comprehensive legislation enacted over the last 50 years regulating in detail the &lsquo;who, what, where, when, and how&rsquo; of abortion so thoroughly covers the entire subject of abortion that it was meant as a substitute for the 19th century near-total ban on abortion,&rdquo; Justice Rebecca Dallet wrote in the decision for the case that overturned the law, known as Kaul v. Urmanski.<\/p>\n<p>While Dallet noted that Wisconsin Supreme Court precedent had typically set a high standard for so-called &ldquo;implied repeal,&rdquo; they found that due to state law on abortion being revised in the wake of Roe v. Wade, the Wisconsin Legislature had met that bar.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Indeed, these statutes specify, often in extraordinary detail, the answer to nearly every conceivable question about abortion,&rdquo; Dallet wrote.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Who may perform abortions? Only doctors. Where may abortions be performed? Within 30 miles of a hospital where the doctor has admitting privileges. When may abortions be performed? Prior to viability or 20 weeks of pregnancy except when necessary to preserve the life or health of the mother or in a medical emergency.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Wisconsin Republicans and Democrats lamented and rejoiced over the decision, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The Wisconsin Supreme Court&rsquo;s role is to follow the Constitution, not to make law,&rdquo; said state Republican Party Chairman Brian Schimming in a statement. &ldquo;This issue should be resolved in the legislature and by voters, not by far-left justices parading as legislators.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/craziest-mask-mandate-yet-employees-wear-masks-teleconferencing-alone-home\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wisconsin Gov.

But here&rsquo;s the thing: There was an easy way to stop this. Republicans didn&rsquo;t turn out in high enough numbers either time in a state where the GOP now <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/voter-constitutional-amendment-passes-eye-popping-margin-major-defeat-democrats\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">has a better-than-average chance of winning<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If Protasiewicz hadn&rsquo;t been elected, she wouldn&rsquo;t have cast the deciding vote. If Crawford weren&rsquo;t about to be seated, the court likely would be loath to issue a sweeping decision that the court might backtrack on in the not-too-distant future. In both cases, in winnable elections, conservatives dropped the ball.<\/p>\n<p>To quote a not-exactly-missed former president, elections have consequences. In this case, the consequences will be borne by the unborn.

On Wednesday, the Wisconsin Supreme Court declared a 176-year-old abortion ban invalid. The decision to overturn the 1849 law passed with a 4-3 vote, as it had been rendered irrelevant by Roe v. Wade. The New York Times reported that Republican prosecutors in Wisconsin-who supported Donald Trump in both 2016 and 2020 and hold majorities in the state legislature despite having a Democratic governor-brought the case forward, intending to enforce the outdated law. The pivotal vote came from Janet Protasiewicz, who was elected during an off-year election in 2023. Although judges are officially nonpartisan, Protasiewicz campaigned on issues like abortion and LGBT rights when she ran for the seat left vacant by Justice Patience Roggensack&#8217;s retirement; her campaign was notably expensive, costing over $42 million.<\/p>\n<p>This was followed by an astonishing $100 million spent on a race for another open seat in 2025 to maintain a left-leaning majority of 4-3 on the court, even as conservative donors like Elon Musk poured money into Wisconsin alongside liberal groups. As noted by Fox News, this case sparked what became America&#8217;s most costly judicial election ever (the newly elected justice Susan Crawford will take her position on August 1). Under the old law, anyone other than the pregnant woman who &#8220;intentionally destroys&#8221; an unborn child&#8217;s life could face up to six years in prison and fines of $10,000.<\/p>\n<p>After Roe v. Wade allowed states to regulate abortion again, Democratic Governor Tony Evers and Attorney General Josh Kaul filed suit against the antiquated ban arguing it had effectively been repealed over time due to newer regulations that limit abortions after certain periods or impose waiting times before procedures can occur.<\/p>\n<p>The judges concurred with this view and struck down the law on Wednesday. Justice Rebecca Dallet stated that comprehensive legislation enacted over five decades has thoroughly addressed all aspects of abortion regulation so much so that it serves as a replacement for nearly total bans from previous centuries.<\/p>\n<p>Reactions were mixed: Republicans expressed disappointment while Democrats celebrated; GOP Chairman Brian Schimming criticized justices for making laws instead of adhering strictly to constitutional guidelines while Governor Evers hailed it as progress for women&#8217;s rights and healthcare access but vowed continued efforts against any restrictions on reproductive freedoms.<\/p>\n<p>I believe this ruling is flawed; claiming there&#8217;s a high threshold for &#8220;implied repeal&#8221; yet asserting that new laws met this standard while keeping older ones intact seems illogical. However, Republicans failed to mobilize enough voters during crucial elections where they had favorable odds-if Protasiewicz hadn&#8217;t won or if Crawford weren&#8217;t about to join them soon after then perhaps such sweeping decisions wouldn&#8217;t have occurred now.<\/p>\n<p>As history shows us through past leadership: elections have consequences-and here those consequences impact unborn lives significantly-a reminder especially relevant given shifting political dynamics within states where dedicated voter turnout remains essential regardless of timing or type of election held<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2455091,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Sonogram.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[58344,43743,33211,32275,4124],"class_list":["post-2455090","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-58344","tag-abortion-law","tag-legal-news","tag-supreme-court","tag-wisconsin"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Sonogram.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2455090","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2455090"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2455090\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2455094,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2455090\/revisions\/2455094"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2455091"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2455090"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2455090"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2455090"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
