Do the Catholic's constuents and their viewpoints matter? After all - this person was elected as a representative whose job is to represent his/her constituents. If they don't want action against abortion rights, is it ok for that person to impose his/her will in defiance of those who put him/her there? The job is about representing constituents. Yet the pro-life movement doesn't want to make it about that, because the constituency wants abortion legal but regulated.

Perhaps it should be put on the ballot for everyone to vote on. Hmmmm. I wonder why it hasn't been.

I'd ask the same question back to you. You had a Republican executive and a Republican-controlled Congress for six years... why didn't they try to write a law addressing the issue? The only measure I saw in the states was South Dakota's failed initiative last week.
