Did the learned judge say which part of the 14th Amendment the abortion ban violated? Sections 2,3,& 4 deal with the ex-Confederacy, so it must be in section 1 which reads:
“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.”
It can’t be the first sentence and it can’t the second part of the second sentence. So it must be hiding in the first part. The judge is saying that abortion is a “privilege or immunity” of a citizen of the U.S.
I just read it again too. More confused now...huh?
