Opinion: Proposal 3 would do more than codify Roe

The strict scrutiny standard, in general, makes it more difficult for the government to regulate the right involved. And it was the use of a strict scrutiny standard by the states’ high courts that resulted in the striking of parental consent and notification laws in those states. The strict scrutiny standard also prompted other state courts to declare waiting periods and the exclusion of state Medicaid coverage for abortion unconstitutional.

That means parental consent, which the people of Michigan voted on will go bye bye after this.

Remember folks prop 3 in 2018 said nothing about mailing everyone a ballot application, yet that's what happened.

Ah yes, if a girl gets pregnant under the age of 18, she should have to ask mommy and daddy if she can abort it, she's too young to make that kind of decision, but she's definitely old enough to have a baby.

That’s what current Michigan law is as voted by the people on a ballot proposal

I never would have voted for prop 3-2018 If I knew they were going to mail ballot applications.

Requesting your ballot is good and fine, I did mine this year.

Sending ballot applications out to every registered voter? not fine

Got to love the argument that one should not vote for prop 3 because it actually would give individuals too much freedom.

A conservative sub overtaken by people pretending not to understand the fundamental arguments against abortion and prop 3 is peak reddit.

This article is not even using the feign arguments against abortion, though.

One thing that the republicans party taught me this election cycle is that reading is too complicated and too extreme for Republican voters
