It really makes me wonder if anyone actually READ the draft. Alito is basically punting the issue to the states now.
What does this mean? It means hard right states are going to outright ban it. Right leaning states are going to heavily restrict it, left leaning states are likely to not change their laws and enact laws maintaining the status quo, and hard-left states are going to open the abortion floodgates and probably make it legal for women to kill their children as old as two years old (ok maybe not that extreme but you get my point)
So to the pro-lifers celebrating, you did get a big win. But the screeching leftists are just doing what they always do: screech. They don't think. Sure they're going to lose ground in the states they didn't have much headway anyway, but they can now stomp the gas in the states like California, Oregon, and New York.
Correct. It just bumps the decision back to the states, where it should be. I hope it removes the automatic federal funding for abortion, but I'm not sure it will do that. The federal sanctioning of abortion is power that was usurped by the federal government from the states. It is right that it should be returned to the states.
