If it’s a national issue, then there needs to be a constitutional amendment passed since the constitution does not address it (the major problem with Roe v Wade).

Preamble

We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Amendment V

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the militia, when in actual service in time of war or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

Amendment X

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.

Amendment XIV

Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; 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.

The Constitution covers it well, IMO

And this is exactly what happens when Democrats are elected to any political office.

I’m not being flippant. Thanks for the post and reference. I hope everyone reads it.

What the US Constitution says is not always what the Supreme Court claims it says.

Thanks for posting this. Did you go to Gutherie for the celebration this weekend?

There were changes in the US Constitution that have never been adequately explained or addressed because of the Civil War. It is interesting to read about how various laws and the three amendments coming out of that period did or did not accomplish what was intended or that have been corrupted over time.

For example the 14th Amendment was never intended to give citizenswhip to illegal aliens as we experience today. It was menat to cover blacks who were enslaved. If so, why did the change happen and what do we do about it?

...nor shall any state deprive any person...

I don't believe states are going around aborting anyone.

Abortion is a state issue just like murder is, unless you have your abortion on Federal land.
