“If you don’t like the current national stance on abortion you can change it. But that change has to happen through the constitutional amendment process because the Supreme Court already ruled.”
A Supreme Court precedent is not sacred. The nation’s high court has overturned 236 rulings in its history, some of which marked sea changes in American society and rule of law. The U.S. Constitution has no jurisdiction regarding abortion or infanticide. A liberal Supreme Court majority had to fabricate the “right to privacy” derived from the 14th Amendment to justify the Roe vs Wade decision. Both are therefore states’ rights issues. Congress should use Article III, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution to direct the Supreme Court that it has no past, present or future appellate jurisdiction on abortion or infanticide.
