How Pro-Lifers Can Overcome The Courts Stacked Against Life by Bill Kilgore

How Pro-Lifers Can Overcome The Courts Stacked Against Life by Bill Kilgore
Pro-life people and those who believe in self-government are left with poor options. Either they can continue to wait for the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade and sweep away 46 years of precedent, or they can attempt to make abortion a real political issue, not a legal question (what might once have been called a political question). This would be to challenge the dogma of judicial supremacy.
Forcing a constitutional crisis will make abortion a political issue. A constitutional crisis is not a good thing, for its outcome is always uncertain. Yet if pro-life majorities in the states are willing to force the issue and declare that the people are truly sovereign, the pro-life movement can begin to make substantive change and start outlawing abortion locally, and, in time, everywhere.
I love this take. It's time to force the issue. It is literally a matter of life and death!
