Dozens of protesters gather in the Wisconsin state Capitol rotunda in Madison, Wis. Wednesday, June 22, 2022, in hopes of convincing Republican lawmakers to repeal the state's 173-year-old ban on abortions. The ban has been dormant since the U.S. Supreme Court handed down its landmark Roe v. Wade decision in 1973 but the court is expected to overturn that ruling any day. That would reactivate Wisconsin's ban. Democratic Gov. Tony Evers called a special legislative session Wednesday afternoon to repeal the ban but Republicans control the Legislature and were expected to gavel in and gavel out without taking any action.
