Abortion was illegal in every state by the early 20th C.

Why wasn't it made illegal in every state immediately upon ratification of the 14th, like slavery?

Moral corruption. Also, abortion was so dangerous there was hardly any point making it illegal.

Why wasn’t slavery made illegal as soon as the Declaration was promulgated?
