The Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade, the landmark case that established a constitutional right to abortion. The decision could lead to abortion bans in half of U.S. states.
In response, states like California are moving to amend their constitutions to include abortion rights. Now, citizens and lawmakers are thinking about what defines a constitutional right and how different interpretations of the constitutions affect those rights.
We talk about changing the Constitution and what comes next after the reversal of Roe.

It wasn't a constitutional right...that was the point of overturning it. Now it is back to the states or the Congress can add an amendment to make it one.

"What are constitutional rights?
Constitutional rights are the protections and liberties guaranteed to the people by the U.S. Constitution. Many of these rights are outlined in the Bill of Rights, such as the right to free speech and the right to a speedy and public trial."

The constitution does not list such rights as voting , travel, judicial review or marriage so do we throw these rights out as they are not listed in the constitution
