There is no Constitutional basis for outlawing a procedure.

Have you actually read the Constitution or is this some libertarian talking point? Amendments 4, 5 and 13 CLEARLY outlaw procedures

..and how exactly do these amendments outlaw THIS procedure?

You have kind of proved my point. We either need an amendment such as 4,5 or 13 to outlaw this particular procedure. Or we can simply pass a law clarifying that 14 covers human being in the womb.

You said "there is no Constitutional basis for outlawing a procedure.

You didn't specify what procedure.

You have kind of proved my point. We either need an amendment such as 4,5 or 13 to outlaw this particular procedure. Or we can simply pass a law clarifying that 14 covers human being in the womb.

Amendment V:
nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;

Amendment XIV:
nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

We don't need another amendment, we need to follow the Constitution as it already exists.

Besides, Rand Paul has already said there would be exceptions to his law, not a single baby would be saved.
