The federal govt has no business being involved in abortion in anyway, shape or form. It is a state issue, and the SCOTUS messed up by sticking their beaks into it. Roe v Wade needs to go away, and have the issue returned to the states where it belongs. Thompson was correct with that opinion.
The federal government has as much business prohibiting abortion as it does prohibiting murder. Because it’s the same thing.
Whether we like to admit it or not today...abortion just wasn’t an “issue” that was widely discussed before Roe v. Wade.
