Abortions are still very much legal in New York State,

Abortion has been legal under New York State law since 1970 – three years before the Roe v. Wade decision legalized abortion throughout the country. Because the right is codified in New York State law, federal decisions to limit access to abortion will not impact New York State.

Any woman seeking an abortion in New York State can find more information about her rights here.
