This week marks 45 years since the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Roe v. Wade. For 33 of those 45 years, Clarke Forsythe has worked with Americans United for Life in the courts and state legislatures to restrict abortion, always with an eye on the ultimate win: Overturning Roe V. Wade.

"There's no historical right to abortion in Anglo-American history, there's no precedent that supported a right to terminate pregnancy, there was precedence that established a right to contraception but not to terminate pregnancy," says Forsythe.

He explains how anti-abortion activists are working to roll back abortion rights around the country.
