On the pro-life/pro-choice issue; our elected congress should decide if that’s a federal issue or a states issue then vote accordingly. Another option is a compromise that keeps showing up; the 20 week rule.

But Roe vs. Wade does not allow the issue to be decided by the legislatures (federal or state). The court ruled it’s a Constitutional right based on an implied right to privacy. So you’re saying let the judiciary continue to usurp this issue from the people?

I’m saying let our system work with our elected representatives. The problem with letting SCOTUS decide anything is they are not elected and not answerable to anyone (within reason).

Wouldn’t you rather our elected lawmakers make law instead of judges? That is their purpose after all.
