With all due respect, your proposal sucks. As a pro-lifer, I would favor a constitutional amendment recognizing a nationwide right to life and banning abortion throughout the country. Since that ain’t happening, the next-best thing is overturning Roe and kicking the issue back to the states. The blue states will enshrine legal abortion. The red states will mostly curb it. And the purplish states will work out their own compromises.

You are correct. And is that is going on the Republican party will be eviscerated and destroyed by the rhetoric of the left saying that the Republicans are trying to steal all of our constitutional rights

You bring up a good point, and food for thought.

If strict federalism were applied, could states do ANYTHING that they wanted to? Could they then legalize infanticide, up to 1 year old? On what basis could the federal government ban that?

Not suggesting this, but just looking at the extreme logical conclusion to that mindset.
