Question 16 • 670401 American Studies S1 – MYERS, JOSHUA A

How are the Griswold v. Connecticut and Roe v. Wade cases similar?

Answer
A
Both were based on the Fifth Amendment.
B
Both were decided by the same justices.
C
Both were challenging enumerated rights.
D
Both challenged the constitutionality of state laws.

Explanation

Both cases challenged state laws as unconstitutional. Griswold v. Connecticut challenged a Connecticut law restricting access to contraception, and Roe v. Wade challenged a Texas law banning most abortions. The cases relied on different constitutional reasoning, so the key similarity is that both disputed state laws.
