Trump 2.0 in a post- <i>Dobbs</i> world: Could the threat of restrictive abortion laws extend to Australia?
Seismic shifts occurred in American abortion law after the fall of Roe shortly after the first Trump presidency. Reproductive rights will remain a highly contentious issue in the second Trump presidency and the increasingly restrictive law in the US has prompted similar advocacy in international jurisdictions including Australia. This article compares the legal landscapes and relevant influences in the US and Australia to evaluate the likelihood of the passage of restrictive abortion law in Australia.
