I've scanned around Article 1, Section 8 of our Constitution looking for where the Congress might find the authority to pass such a law, but I can't find it. Can you help me out?

Equal protection clause for one. This bill would have applied the same legal standards to harming the unborn baby as current laws do in harming the mother. The unborn are not given equal treatment under the law, as required by the 14th Amendment. ...nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
