Abstract

The article begins, "The  Constitution does not prohibit the citizens of each State from regulating or prohibiting abortion. Roe and Casey arrogated that authority. We now over rule those decisions and return that authority to the people and their elected representatives." It is now one year, and one full election cycle, since the Supreme Court closed its opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization with those words. That is time enough to gauge how the "people and their elected representatives" have used the authority "return[ed]" to them.
