We fought to overturn Roe to give the decision back to the voters.
It is now up to us to convince our fellow citizens to support life.
Fix where you live.
Central Planning is a disaster. Waiting for crumbs from DC when the solution is right in front of you is wrong. Here in Ohio they passed a Constitutional Amendment in haste. It’s up to us to fix it.
The challenge is local, state, and national Republicans, then cannot be on opposite sides of the issues, otherwise a pro-life Republican at local and state must give up or change views to run nationally.
The decision to give this back to the voters is and was wrong. No voter has been given the opportunity to fairly vote on this and they never will. Not a single unlimited abortion amendment has failed because the powers that be write the language to trick the people. Millions of innocent lives should not be slaughtered because the average citizen has no idea what is being voted on. Roberts for once was right. Overturning Roe has been a disaster. We were on the cusp of making abortion illegal with Dobbs. Alito wrote the worse opinion in SC history. Our right to live is not subject to the “elected representatives of the individual states” What no one states, the constitution IS SILENT to a right to life. It is merely implied, just like the SC found that there was an implied right to privacy and therefore justified abortion.
We worked at this for 50 years to get abortion bans down to 6 weeks which effectively bans all abortions. The incremental approach would have forced the SC to establish law via decree (not constitutional but neither is the right to life) which at that point abortion would have been illegal throughout the land. For 250 years we have lived with this concept that no one has the right to take our lives. It was and is merely a theory. Now, according to Alito, you can be put to death for any reason if approved by the “elected representatives of the states” Where there is no statute proscribing otherwise - anything is legal.
Roe was the 2nd worse decision in SC history and only surpassed as the 2nd worse by its first, its reversal.
