In a Republic, actually
ā€˜LANSING, MI ā€“ In their first days with control of the Michigan Legislature, Democrats targeted a major campaign promise: repealing the stateā€™s abortion ban.

The 1931 law that prohibits abortion except to save the motherā€™s life would be deleted from Michiganā€™s penal code under House Bill 4006, a one-sentence piece of legislation introduced Thursday.

The ban is already overruled by an abortion-rights constitutional amendment passed in November but is still on the books. The law made it a felony to administer an abortion before the U.S. Supreme Courtā€™s 1973 decision in Roe v. Wade made it a constitutional right nationwide.

After the court overturned Roe last summer, Michiganā€™s ban would have gone into effect if it survived court challenges. But voters overwhelmingly passed Proposal 3 last fall, putting a ā€œfundamental rightā€ to abortion and other reproductive health actions into the state constitution.ā€™


Statesā€™ rights, let the states decide, will of the people.

If it's sick, perverted, and applies to cutting children's sex organs Pedophile Joe wants it and wants to watch while sexually motivating a young hair ball. PEDOPHILES OUT OF GOVERNMENT NOW!
 
That's how democracy works. If the Michigan voters want the option to kill their unborn babies they will elect radical democrats.
 
Yes states rights as many of us said here after the Dobbs decision the abortion fight was not over it was just moved to the states some will take more pro life stance some more more choice and some will try and split the difference between the two.
