Self-governance suffered a deadly blow yesterday.
With a vote of 5-3, the Supreme Court struck down Texas law which required abortion facilities and doctors to meet the same health, safety, and qualification standards as surgical facilities.
“The decision erodes States’ lawmaking authority to safeguard the health and safety of women and subjects more innocent life to being lost,” Gov. Greg Abbott said.
Wake-up, America!
Why should five lawyers in black robes get to decide policy questions on which the Constitution gives them no such directions?
State laws, it seems, are nothing more than placeholders until the U.S. Supreme Court rules.
There is only one way to shrink the power of the Courts. Congress can’t do it. Neither can the President.
Only an Article V Convention of States can propose the necessary constitutional amendments to restore the balance of power, and limit the Court’s ability to supersede state law.
