Along with the "state-by-state" SCOTUS decision from 2022, some GOP in Congress propose criminalizing abortion at the federal level.

It's never been about state's rights or being pro life. It's about CONTROL. And it won't stop at abortion. Clarence Thomas and Republicans in Congress have made it very clear.

LTC Kevin B.
MSG Roy Cheever The SCOTUS decision may have been, but this decision to pursue a federal ban certainly isn't.

MSG Roy Cheever - I understand that the recent ruling overturning Roe v Wade was sold to many as a "States rights" issue. You may want to consider that you were sold a bill of goods and the people behind the ruling have bigger objectives in mind. It is possible they lied to you.

I suppose, to read Supreme Court Justice Thomas’s brief might be in order. To see who is being honest, and not what one party or the other is try to say. MSgt Steve Sweeney

MSG Roy Cheever - Which part of Justice's Thomas brief exactly? The part where he says "... In future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court's substantive due process precedents". THAT part of his ruling? Where Thomas calls out Griswold v. Connecticut (contraception), Lawrence (same-sex marriage), and Obergefell (same-sex marriage). “Because any substantive due process decision is ‘demonstrably erroneous,’ we have a duty to ‘correct the error’ established in those precedents.”
THAT part of the ruling? But I understand you may be in favor of the government telling you who you are allowed to love and marry.

LTC Eugene Chu let them pay come November. The Trumpublicans are all talk... after 45 tells them what to say or do.
..."The bill was first introduced in 2013 and has passed out of a Republican-controlled House several times — first in 2013, then in 2015, and finally in 2017. While the party does not currently have a chance of overcoming a veto or a filibuster to get the bill past the finish line, Republicans are expected to take it back up if and when Democrats lose their majorities in either the House or Senate or both in November.
Smith, who has been strongly anti-abortion for decades, celebrated the Supreme Court’s decision on Friday, saying, “The hope and moral imperative to protect innocent children’s lives from extermination couldn’t come a moment too soon.”
Smith’s anti-abortion legislation will be one of several up for debate if the GOP retakes the Congress in November. For example, Nebraska Sen. Ben Sasse’s Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act and its House companion bill from Rep. Ann Wagner (R-MO) remain stalled in committees but could soon be revived."...
