The plan is, and always has been, a federal abortion ban.
All this “states’ rights” nonsense has always been nothing but a pretense, to first destroy the federal right to abortion guaranteed by constitutional SC interpretation, followed by a federal ban once they have the power to do so.
And just as a preview: this is going to be the same play with contraceptives, gay marriage, possibly even interracial marriage, and beyond. Concurrences by conservative justices when Roe was repealed have pretty much announced that.
They have a few pieces of agenda forming to make sure clinics and doctors dont victimize clients ie safe, CLEAN environments, local doctors. Thats why the last clinic closed due to blood and tissue not being cleaned in the St Louis clinic.
Believe it or not some people do want them safe, even if they abhor the process/profit.
They just find other ways to put barriers in place. Mandatory waiting periods. Mandatory ultrasound. Close clinics because their doorway is too narrow. They’ll find new ways too.
It’s like when FL voters approved an amendment to allow people with former felony convictions to be able to vote. The government didn’t like it, so they enacted policy that they had to pay back whatever fees, intimidated them, made things so confusing that people were afraid they’d be arrested if they went to vote. There are a million different strategies to go against the will of the people.
@KNOWITALL I believe you and agree that clean and safe are vitally important.
It’s all for nought, actually. With the Republicans in power, they will now pass a national ban on abortion. So all these people from individual states getting excited about having abortion rights enshrined in their constitutions, or maybe going to lose it anyway.
Although, does having it enshrined in their state constitution overrule and national ban? Maybe somebody can answer that.
