Response To Supreme Court


The response is simple. The federal gov't has the power to pass a pro choice
amendment. The Democrats have sworn to do that but they would have to get control of the congress and senate in the 2024 election . .
If you want change, be the change when you vote in 2024!

How you vote and who you vote for matter.

Before we end up with even more confusion about this, The ruling only returned the decisions back to the states where it always should have been all along.
To pass a Constitutional Amendment requires much more than a simple majority of congress. Amendments to the constitution require a super majority (2/3rds) to pass congress AND THEN it goes to the states where 2/3rds of the states MUST ratify it for it to become an amendment.

It is a shame to have to explain this because of poor school systems not actually teaching people HOW their government works, that or maybe they need to bring back those old "Schoolhouse Rocks" informative cartoons

The states shoudl NOT be the decider in this issue. If that were the case, Slavery could be a state issue and not a constitutional one. The fucking contstitution says absolutlely NOTHING about slavery. So using the morinic repub arugment,. Slavery should still be legal. I exprect that is the next this the court shoudl rule upon and dipshit Thmos can become chattel to someone, probably his lover, D. Dipishit Trump.;

now you might want to take a look at the 13th and 14th amendments before you show the full lack of your ability to understand the constitution:

AMENDMENT XIII
Passed by Congress January 31, 1865. Ratified December 6, 1865.

Note: A portion of Article IV, section 2, of the Constitution was superseded by the 13th amendment.

Section 1.
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

Section 2.
Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

AMENDMENT XIV
Passed by Congress June 13, 1866. Ratified July 9, 1868.

Note: Article I, section 2, of the Constitution was modified by section 2 of the 14th amendment.

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.

Section 2.
Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice-President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age,* and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State.

Section 3.
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

Section 4.
The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.

Section 5.
The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.

*Changed by section 1 of the 26th amendment.

I hope women overwhelm the ballot boxes in November and in 2024. And with Justice Thomas suggesting Same-sex relationships and marriage rights, due process, right to privacy and equal rights rulings should be reconsidered., Every person in the LGBT community should be joining the vote to get the laws passed that protect their right to be who they want to be and live how they want to live.

Oral Operator: If you make a post calling others stupic and uneducated, ya might want to be extra careful you are pretty airtight on your own facts and analysis. The SC decision does not simply vest or return regulation on reproductive issues to the states.

As Devilzcharm notes, the federal govt. can play in this arena too. Much of the current focus is on whether Congress can pass a law essentially codifying Roe as a statute, but Congress could also pass a law restricting abortions. Of course there would be fights over applicability of the Commerce Clause in either event, but I think the better argument is it applies.
