*Mostly illegal for abortionists.. Upon the overturn of Roe, Idaho’s trigger bill was challenged in State court and upheld. It is now in effect as I.C. § 18-622. It makes abortion illegal for abortionists except in the cases of rape and incest. It leaves self-managed abortion legal by establishing:“Nothing in this section shall be construed to subject a pregnant woman on whom any abortion is performed or attempted to any criminal conviction and penalty.”
Abolition History:

Brent Crane (a pro-life Republican) who chairs the Idaho House State Affairs Committee, as well as pro-life groups Idaho Chooses Life and Right to Life of Idaho.
