    I mean, if it works, we’ll just ignore their rules. States that have enshrined abortion access into their constitution aren’t going to just lay down and take it.

    We will raise hell over this stuff if it actually happens.

      If they get their way and make it federal law, the fact that it’s enshrined in their state constitutions won’t matter. Just like it didn’t matter that some states had “trigger laws” already on the books long before Roe was overturned. Federal law supersedes state law.

      You’ll get to ignore the laws, but those of us in red states won’t. Please don’t forget to raise hell for us too. “Just move” isn’t always an option.

      I don’t know. My state is the poster child here and we might get a ballot initiative for things like access to adult HRT. But I’m not holding my breath.
