How do you reconcile a FEDERAL law legalizing abortion with the Tenth Amendment?

[StatesRightsForever]

Women and NOT the State have a right to decide their own health care.

Abortion should be legal, but please don't call it healthcare!!!

 

[ThisIsMe]

The 10A in its entirety says:
"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor
prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to
the people."

Since abortion is never mentioned or implied anywhere in the constitution, it is a state issue. Any attempt by the feds to legalize it will be struck down by the Supreme Court.

Too don’t reconcile it, you follow the cotus. Abortion should be a state issue, and we are seeing states revamp their ideas…look at what just happened in Arizona

A matter between a woman and her physician.

I agree…it’s certainly not a federal issue though.

Until Republicans make it one. Then you’ll thing differently

Rights are always a federal issue.

No, I’ll think the same. I’ve been consistent that I disagree with a national abortion ban, for the same reason I support Dobbs.

No, I’ll think the same. I’ve been consistent that I disagree with a national abortion ban, for the same reason I support Dobbs.

Rights shouldn’t be parsed. If it’s legal anywhere, it should be legal everywhere.

Where does the constitution say abortion is illegal?

You say that now

Just like people like you said Roe would never be overturned.

Republicans simply can not be trusted

Even republicans admit that

The tenth amendment says that's false. 99.9% of issues are suppposed to be state issues.

Not human rights.

So you think everything should be settled by the federal government and we should do away with the 50 states??? The 10A says the opposite.

You missed the point. The federal constitution never says anything about abortion and that means, by the 10A, it's a state issue. Each state must be allowed its own rules on abortion. If a state wants to make abortion legal up to birth, they should be allowed to do that. Other states may choose to ban abortion entirely.

In the consideration of human rights the 10th was superseded by the 13-15th Amendments.

The Constitution doesn’t say the state can mandate you wear a green shirt either--it doesn’t mention clothing at all... so by your “logic” states can force you to wear green shirts, baseball caps, the Star of David...that would play well in Red States.

 

[sartre play]

Ahh the "logic" of a red hat.

yeah aintt it horrible,,

how dare I protect innocent children from sick fucks that want to kill it,,

Then May I assume you are against capital punishment???

 

[progressive hunter]

Then May I assume you are against capital punishment???

I guess you missed the word "innocent" in my comment??

the more you sick fucks talk the more I am convinced the world would be a better place without you,,,

if its your child I fully support abortion,,
have at it,,

 

[progressive hunter]

as for the death penalty,,
think its to good for people that murder children,,

they should be locked up with convicts with big dicks so they can become human pin cushions,,

SO if I get your message,
If your a member of a political group who THINKS differently than you do, its ok to have an abortion?
But you are pro capital punishment?
What happened to that most popular Christian slogan being spoken now?
HATE the sin, forgive the sinner?
