The reversal of Roe v. Wade in June 2022 gave each state more freedom in legislating abortion laws and protections for preborn children. In the 15 months that have followed, the abortion industry has gone on the attack and revealed its top strategy for promoting abortion and protecting its bottom line: changing state constitutions.
These state constitutional amendment campaigns are designed to look as though they are part of grassroots efforts; at first glance, groups with names like “Ohioans for Reproductive Rights,” “Floridians Protecting Freedom,” and “New Yorkers for Equal Rights” appear to be campaigns spearheaded by local citizens. But behind this façade, the campaigns are part of a larger, targeted effort driven by abortion industry stalwarts like Planned Parenthood, NARAL (which is now changing its name again, this time to “Reproductive Freedom for All“), and the ACLU.
The language of “reproductive rights” or “freedom” or “equal rights” is, itself, misleading because it groups killing preborn humans (induced abortion, which is heavily controversial) together with things like access to miscarriage treatment (something that is not controversial). Pro-abortion laws create a special right to kill an already existing human being living in his or her mother’s womb. Pro-abortion laws and amendments do not provide freedom or equal rights to the humans who are being killed, yet they are disguised in the language of liberty.
