I agree but it goes well beyond Roe. The federal government, in my opinion, has had a lot of over-reach passing laws and using the interstate commerce clause to justify federal involvement. In appropriately so in my opinion. We have many federal laws that I believe are overreach. As I read the 2nd amendment, it reserves regulation of firearms to the states yet we have many federal restrictions on firearms. So far, SCOTUS had made it clear that there is no individual right to abortion given by the constitution. We say that means it is up to the individual states to regulate it, but I don't see a clear ruling from SCOTUS on this. If the federal government can pass firearm regulations where the constitutional right is reserved to the states (and from a previous decision, to the individual), why would they not overreach and try to codify Roe nationally. Either SCOTUS lets this happen or the rule it as in the purview of the states. That kind of ruling would have a profound effect on many federal laws.I really don’t get it. This isn’t in the constitution. This is a state issue. The founders knew each state might find issues with different things. That’s why we have states.
