Not true. The issue was returned to the states, where it belongs. There is no national consensus on this issue. It is now up to the pro-lifers in each state to change our abortion-furthering culture state-by-state. As this is done, the number of abortions will decline.

“Conservatives” are cheering that Trump and the GOP have moved toward the center as they compromised on abortion.

STATES RIGHTS!!!! You betcha.

But I’ve studied my US history and I know we heard the same STATES RIGHTS arguments from southern states in pre-Civil War days. We all know how that worked out.

Abortion - like slavery is a hot button national issue. Punting it down to the states will not do any good.

The 13th Amendment abolished Slavery. This simple Amendment will abolish abortion...

 

Section 1. Neither the United States nor any State shall deprive any human being, from the moment of conception, of life without due process of law; nor deny to any human being, from the moment of conception, within its jurisdiction, the equal protection of the laws.

Section 2. Neither the United States nor any State shall deprive any human being of life on account of illness, age, or incapacity.

Section 3. Congress and the several States shall have the power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.
