Doubtful, but maybe we’ll get the gov to stop paying for them.
Trump has aborted future Supreme Court abortionists.
Overturning Roe vs. Wade would not make abortion illegal.
Instead, the states could pass whatever laws they want.
Congress can make it illegal any time it wants by actually passing a law to that effect.
SCOTUS has always been reluctant to overturn their predecessors.
Abortion is something a woman must deal with on a personal level. The Court should not decide either way. I do not believe it should be taxpayer funded though. All of the “pro choice” places that provide abortion services need to have those funds yanked immediately.
Sure hope so. Abortion doesn’t even make sense.
They could send it back to the states.
which would be an improvement
AND make it illegal to force all Americans to pay for it
No, we need a Supreme Court that actually APPLIES THE CONSTITUTION. That means that all federal abortion cases including Roe v. Wade get overturned and the Supreme Court sends abortion cases BACK TO THE STATES.
ABORTION IS A STATES ISSUE. THE CONSTITUTION GIVES NO AUTHORITY TO THE FEDS REGARDING ABORTION.
Remember the states generally had anti-abortion laws in place before the feds illegally and unconstitutionally tried to overturn such laws. Again the answer is not for the feds to exercise unconstitutional authority against abortion. The answer is to overturn all federal decisions where the Constitution gave the feds no authority to decide in the first place.
Murder for convenience is too entrenched, sad to say, even with most republicans. The best chances we have is to make it a states choice, not have government (us) pay for it, and hope to eliminate it from there.
While I doubt a total ban on abortion will be the result, a much more curtailed abortion would be. Since it is has been argued as a personal issue, it will become a personal responsibility. No longer would ax money be allowed to support the abortion industry. It can survive with only the funds received by their clients, period. I also believe that late term abortions will be banned except in extreme cases.
Since there is NO Constitutional “right to abortion,” Justice Kennedy having made up “a right to privacy” to justify the killing of inconvenient babies, I certainly pray this evil perversion of the Constitution will be repealed.
Show the snowflakes the pictures. Let them see what they are doing. It’s murder.
Yes, they could overrule Roe v. Wade. But that would not make abortion illegal. It would just return the decision to the states.
That’s because the actual Constitution (as opposed to the fantasy constitution of progressive judges) put decisions about abortion in the hands of the States, not in the hands of nine unelected federal judges.
I can’t see that happening, but federal funding should be cut off.
I would be satisfied if we banned abortions once the child is able to survive outside the womb. As far as I’m concerned, once the pregnancy goes that far the mother abdicates “choice” and the welfare of the child takes over.
As others have noted, overturning Roe v Wade would turn it back to the states.
The effect would be many states would make it illegal and others would add stricter controls with out fear of the ACLU taking them to court.
One thing congress can do is stop paying for abortions.
America once got a Supreme Court that made it LEGAL, so I don’t see why not.
> “Could America Get a Supreme Court that Would Make Abortion Illegal?”
No, but they could follow the Constitution and leave the matter to the States where it properly belongs.
I understand that Roe v Wade being overturned would put the question back to the states.
But I don’t understand how it would be unconstitutional to ban abortion.
The Declaration says that all have the right to life. It is only after criminal actionn and with due process that the states are able to deny that right. Neither applies in an abortion.
I’m not necessarily saying that abortion should be banned, but if slavery can be at the federal level, then certainly abortion can be under the same reasoning.
It’s only by denying the personhood of a fetus - something that is increasingly medically spurious - that it has been possible to make abortion legal. And like slavery, there is an inherent conflict there that is going to have to be resolved.
Technically, overturning Roe v Wade does not make abortion illegal and only throws the question back to the states.
Some states would keep it legal some would make it illegal
