And, what position do you have, Rick, on the desire of some Republicans to not merely reverse Roe, but declare that abortion violates the 14th Amendment and thus the many states which protect a woman's right control her own body are unconstitutional? 
All persons born or naturalized in the United States are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.
 
Congress has authority over naturalization.
 
Declare that all persons, whether or not yet born, who come within the territorial boundaries of the United States are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.
 
Voila!!
 
In this way, unborn children would be prenatally naturalized, endowed with obvious and not easily overcome rights to due process, and all without violence to the Constitution.
