@rossihunter2 isn't wrong though. The US separated Church and State back in 1833. This pushes everything back to the states to impose their will on the vast majority who are against this ruling. We are absolutely stepping back into the 50s with this ruling and what is next.....this is just the beginning.
That goes both ways tho. Taxpayer funded and why should it be?
...and this is why this issue needs to go thru the Constitutional Amendment process instead of leaving it murky in court decisions and legislation that would be equally murky and would likely reconstitute Roe in large measure.
With the Court overturning Roe, they don't really change anything immediately that has been going on practice-wise in states. Some have been more harsh and others have been lenient with restrictions and those have either been ignored, struck down, or amended by the USSC. But in practice, you have vigilante centers that allow all terminations which are extremest and on the other end no terminations. What states need to do is start writing their own statutes. Heartbeat Bills and such will never survive legislative muster, just as anytime prior to birth would be. The Court has held the line with Roe and with this decision - more than anything - has decided that we can no longer continue to hold the line on this.
It was never a Constitutional right. It may be a human right, but it was never recognized that way in the US, but it was permitted thru Roe. It's now time - and you can say that we are regressing, but that's not true - for states to do their conscience legislatively to solve the problem. The Electorate will decide if they are working in the right direction or not. What has been done for 40 years is Congress kicking the can down the road and enjoying the spoils of serving while the Court has tried to make sense of reproductive rights in a vastly different world than when Roe was initially decided. Realistically, the old, white, out-of-touch, racist, elitist, and entitled Justices that formulated the trimester system, that was developed in a bipartisan way in deciding Roe, has done pretty well and guided us thru tremendous medical advances and secular beliefs for a damn long time and should be shown a bit of respect. What would you give today to go back to it?!
And this is yet another argument for term limits. Serving as a legislator is not a JOB; it's a service. It's legislators' turn to assume their real role and create law that is meaningful and fair for the people they represent. US!
