Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer repealed a 1931 abortion law that banned abortions and criminalized medical personnel who assisted in the procedure.

With the stroke of her pen, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer repealed an unenforceable Michigan law Wednesday that makes it a felony to administer most abortions with no exception for rape or incest.
For decades, the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision guaranteed a national right to abortion. But when the court overturned that decision, a Michigan Court of Claims judge issued an order temporarily blocking Michigan's abortion ban to ensure continued legal access to the procedure in the state.
Michigan voters ultimately took up the matter directly during last year's midterm when they embraced an amendment to the state's constitution to enshrine an explicit right to seek abortions.
