My current governor wants no restrictions. Next year I’m hoping we can flip the legislature and impose some reasonable 16 week restrictions.

Right the federal government had protected us from states that actively did legislate what goes on in your bedroom. That is keeping government out, they're being invited back in.

There never was a right to an abortion. There is no "right to privacy" in the constitution.

Prior judicial activists gave your "rights" that you were not supposed to get.

We simply corrected the error.

Well, that got decided today.

And the verdict is: No way. Ain't gonna happen.

Today the USSC decided that the Fed govt will have NOTHING to do with abortion restrictions, permissions, or anything else. It's all up to the states now.

So all the rioters, judges-house-demonstrators, birth-counselling-center-attackers, and other harpies, will have to pack up their suitcases on hotels around DC, and move to hotels near their state capitals instead.

See you there.

Roe v Wade just got overturned.

The left only did this to themselves. They forced the pendulum swing, and now it has swung back.

Quote:
The Supreme Court in a 6-3 decision on Friday overturned Roe v. Wade, the landmark ruling that established the constitutional right to abortion in the U.S. in 1973.

The court's controversial but expected ruling gives individual states the power to set their own abortion laws without concern of running afoul of Roe, which for nearly half a century had permitted abortions during the first two trimesters of pregnancy.

People are traveling today to states that allow late term abortions. I don't see that changing much.
Before anyone moves to another state, say for a great new job opportunity, they will have to thoroughly research state laws on a variety of issues to see if they can live under those rules. How many other longstanding precedents will now be "returned to the states?" Every state will become like it's own mini-country
So be careful if you think about moving. You will have a lot of research to do.

Roe v Wade has given legislators cover for almost 50 years.

Now if they want to allow abortion on a national basis - they will have to go on record with votes, and have meetings and discussions about this practice of death.

Please tell me the Hyde Amendment would ban such a ridiculous expenditure of taxpayer dollars.

And . . . there it is. Thomas wrote a concurring opinion that contraception, same sex relationships and same sex marriage should be reconsidered.

As ALL of us who are paying attention, predicted.

I'm no historian, but is there a situation ever in our history where a right that people enjoyed for decades and generations having been taken away by a partisan decision of the Supreme Court?
