Changes to the makeup of the U.S. Supreme Court in 2018 raise the possibility that Roe v. Wade could be severely undermined—or even overturned—essentially leaving the legality of abortion to individual states. A reversal of Roe could establish a legal path for states’ pre-1973 abortion bans, as well as currently unenforced post-1973 bans, to take effect.
Many state lawmakers continue to consider and enact abortion bans that fly in the face of constitutional standards and Roe’s precedent in anticipation of an eventual lawsuit on such a ban coming before a Supreme Court hostile to abortion rights.
Some bans prohibit abortion under all or nearly all circumstances, a tactic widely viewed as an attempt to provoke a legal challenge to Roe.

Abortion is illegal in MI now and Dimwhitler and the Commie AG are going nuts.
Paxton is my man. He slaps at least one lawsuit on Jo Jo the Pedo Clown every day. Too bad all of the AGs weren’t like him.

The country has a history with 13..

Mine’s doing about the same, Schmidt here in Missouri. Might be because he’s running to fill Blunt’s seat though.
Make Row vs. Wade an illegal alien transportation option again!
The alan guttmacher institute is, I think, planned parenthood.
I believe that the Court actually punted on the abortion issue here. Saying that there is no federal right to an abortion is of little help if there isn’t also a federal right to life. Letting each state decide when a human becomes a “person” with rights and privileges didn’t work in the run up to the Civil War, and won’t work now.
To whom is your post addressed?
If, by his efforts, Paxton convinces even one abortuary to cloe up shop and flee the state, it will have been worthwhile.
“...twisted and grown fedgov into a monstrosity.”
And the interesting thing is when Trump offered help for free to the states that really needed it three years ago and they turned it down saying it’s none of his business the socialists turned around and called it responsive and concerned when one of theirs did the exact same thing. Further, Trump sent two hospital ships, one to New York and one to Los Angeles, to cover accident cases so they could work covid cases in their hospitals and they misused the ships getting a number of crew members infected. These pr-—s never do anything right. And almost everything they deal with concerning the citizens is perceived, not cut in stone like they would have you believe.
