Jackson Women\u2019s Health Organization<\/em><\/a> ruling is not the end of the fight for unborn lives. It\u2019s the beginning of a long, drawn-out battle to save unborn lives in all 50 states which are no longer under the curse of <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em>. <\/p>\n<p>Despite the moaning, groaning, and gnashing of teeth from the pro-abortion left and their <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/06\/22\/as-dobbs-decision-nears-corporate-media-abortion-propaganda-machine-is-firing-on-all-cylinders\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cronies in the corrupt corporate media<\/a> that the end of women\u2019s \u201chealth\u201d is near, the Supreme Court\u2019s decision to overturn the infamous ruling from 1973 will give states the authority to create their own protections for life inside the womb. <\/p>\n<p>Voters and legislators in several states such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sos.state.co.us\/pubs\/elections\/Initiatives\/titleBoard\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Colorado<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.legis.iowa.gov\/legislation\/BillBook?ga=89&#038;ba=HJR5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Iowa<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/kslegislature.org\/li\/b2021_22\/measures\/documents\/hcr5003_00_0000.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kansas<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.legislature.ky.gov\/record\/21rs\/HB91.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kentucky<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/leg.mt.gov\/bills\/mca\/title_0500\/chapter_0200\/part_0010\/section_0080\/0500-0200-0010-0080.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Montana<\/a>, are attempting through petitions and bills to incorporate laws or constitutional amendments affirming an unborn or born alive baby\u2019s right to live on their respective 2022 midterm ballots. Their quest to explicitly \u201cdefend and protect unborn children,\u201d as stated in the Iowa legislature\u2019s proposal, would strengthen the states\u2019 abilities to restrict and even ban abortion.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Many of these measures are strongly opposed by pro-abortion groups and politicians who aren\u2019t happy to see <em>Roe<\/em> go. In Kansas, Democrat Gov.\u00a0Laura Kelly wrote off her state\u2019s proposed life-saving amendment as an \u201ceconomic development issue.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are a number of CEOs who really look to see what kind of inclusive policies we have in place that make it easier for them to recruit and retain a talented work force. It will be an economic development issue for us,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Health\/wireStory\/kansas-debates-abortion-measure-stifle-economy-75547106\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kelly said<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>A <em>Dobbs <\/em>victory is worth celebrating because it means that pro-lifers who have benefitted from years of the cultural swing towards preserving life have an even better chance at protecting the unborn. But beware because it also opens the door for radically pro-baby-killing states to double down on their abortion agendas.<\/p>\n<p>While pro-life voters and legislatures are actively fighting to amend constitutions to include protections for preborn babies, pro-abortion groups are plotting to take advantage of the festering <em>Dobbs <\/em>panic on the left and in the corporate media to rally their troops to put killing infants back on the books. Many blue states are trying to radically codify the unmitigated slaughter of unborn infants. If they are successful, hundreds of thousands of preborn babies will continue to die in states, predominantly Democrat-controlled ones, each and every year. <\/p>\n<p>In Arizona, the pro-abortion group <a href=\"https:\/\/azreproductivefreedom.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Arizonans for Reproductive Freedom<\/a> is racing against the clock to gather enough signatures on a <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.arizona.vote\/info\/assets\/33\/0\/BallotMeasures\/C-03-2022%20Arizonans%20for%20Reproductive%20Freedom.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">petition<\/a> that would put killing unborn babies up for a vote in November. If certified by the secretary of state at the July 7 deadline and then approved by enough voters in the fall, the Grand Canyon State\u2019s constitution would be amended to endorse abortions up to \u201cthe point in a pregnancy at which \u2026 there is a reasonable likelihood of sustained fetal survival outside the uterus with or without artificial support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plannedparenthoodaction.org\/planned-parenthood-affiliates-california\/media\/icymi-constitutional-amendment-legislation-sails-through-first-t\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">behest of Planned Parenthood<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.ca.gov\/2022\/06\/08\/governor-newsom-statement-on-introduction-of-constitutional-amendment-to-enshrine-the-right-to-abortion-in-california\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom<\/a>, leftist legislators in California are already well on their way to codifying abortion. Just this week, the state senate <a href=\"https:\/\/leginfo.legislature.ca.gov\/faces\/billStatusClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220SCA10\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">passed<\/a> a constitutional amendment that would bar the Golden State from banning abortion. If two-thirds of the California state assembly votes to pass the amendment by June 30, it will appear on voters\u2019 ballots in November. <\/p>\n<p>In Michigan, the pro-abortion group \u201cReproductive Freedom For All\u201d has <a href=\"https:\/\/mireproductivefreedom.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">teamed up<\/a> with Planned Parenthood, ACLU of Michigan, and progressive organization Michigan Voices, to garner public support for a constitutional amendment that would solidify abortion as an unregulated practice in the state.<\/p>\n<p>If the measure is added to the ballot and subsequently passed by voters, something Democrat Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.detroitnews.com\/story\/news\/local\/michigan\/2022\/04\/07\/gretchen-whitmer-seeks-overturn-michigan-1931-abortion-ban\/9494945002\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">expressed support for<\/a>, it would not only keep abortions around in Michigan but would likely make them more accessible by neutering laws banning baby killing after \u201cviability\u201d and permitting minors to get abortions without parental consent. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis poorly-worded amendment would repeal dozens of state laws, including our state\u2019s ban on tax-funded abortions, the partial-birth abortion ban, and fundamentally alter the parent-child relationship by preventing parents from having input on their children\u2019s health,\u201d Citizens to Support MI Women and Children said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/supportmiwomenandchildren.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">statement<\/a> rejecting the attempt to codify abortion. <\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the most radical example of this push to codify abortion is in Vermont. Abortion in Vermont already <a href=\"https:\/\/codes.findlaw.com\/vt\/title-18-health\/vt-st-tit-18-sect-9493.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">became codified in 2019<\/a>, but pro-abortion politicians and organizations in the state, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.burlingtonfreepress.com\/story\/news\/local\/vermont\/2022\/05\/03\/vermont-stance-roe-v-wade-supreme-court-abortion-draft-decision-leak\/9626369002\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GOP Gov.
