Kamala Harris: Pro-Life States Should Need “Preclearance” From The DOJ To Pass Anti-Abortion Laws

A shrewd primary pander, even though the odds of such a law passing Congress *and* surviving Supreme Court scrutiny are teeny tiny — for now. But within 10 years? If Democrats flip the Senate and President Harris gets to replace a few conservatives on the Court with liberals?

Sure, this might fly. Put nothing past them, especially when it comes to abortion.

Her proposal will target states with a history of passing abortion laws that were later struck down for contradicting Roe, not any state with a pro-life majority. But it amounts to roughly the same thing: Virtually any attempt to limit abortion rights in a meaningful way during the Roe era has been rejected by the courts, so in practice any pro-life state that’s attempted to legislate on the subject will be on the DOJ’s blacklist.

The only area where "preclearance" has been applied I am aware of is around voting rights which is explicit in the 15th amendment and real restriction to that right has occurred. As Allahpundit mentions this will open a can of worms for the Pro-Gun people to impose "preclearance" on states that persistently pass unconstitutional infringements on the 2nd Amendment.

What kind of preclearance to did sanctuary cities seek?

This woman desperately wants to be a totalitarian Dictator. She needs to be locked up.

And all politicians should get the Mark of the Beast tattooed before they can run...

States rights.

This is precisely the FASCISM the Constitution is designed to protect against.

[excalibur21]

Maybe she should get DOJ preclearance to breath.

Take away state’s rights. Good idea. Run on it.

If we aren’t seeing people being turned over to depraved minds per Romans 1:18-32 what will it look like when we finally are?

Agree 100% BUMP! She's dangerous. And unable to become President because her parents were not US citizens when she was born. nobama got away with this. He needs to be the last.

I wonder how many of Willie Brown’s kids she aborted?

[faithhopecharity]

What an idiot Harris is. We live in a constitutional republic. Or at least are supposed to. And besides she’s ineligible for presidency so should have had to obtain ore leads for before collecting contributions under false pretenses?

“This woman desperately wants to be a totalitarian Dictator.”

That makes sense. She can’t be President, as she is not a natural born citizen by any metric.

That already happened, in 1865.
