Acc/to legal scholars, the president has the authority under the #InsurrectionAct of 1807 to federalize #NationalGuard units in #states to suppress “any #insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy” that “so hinders the execution of the laws” that any portion of the state’s inhabitants are deprived of a #ConstitutionalRight & #state authorities are unable or unwilling to protect that right.

Both are designed for one purpose to #thwart the #will of the #voters, #violating their #constitutionalright to a #Republican form of #Government.

The Detroit News
For >40yrs a passionate band of #conservative & mostly #Christian activists tried to find ways to undermine the 1973 #SCOTUS ruling guaranteeing a #ConstitutionalRight to #abortion & revolutionized America.

フランス:女性の人工妊娠中絶を憲法上の権利にした理由

French lawmakers approve bill making abortion a constitutional right (PBS News)

Why France has made abortion a constitutional right (Economist)

フランス議会は主要な政党がすべて賛成し、780-72票の圧倒的多数で、女性が人工妊娠中絶を選ぶ権利を憲法に追加する法案を可決した。フランスでは1975年に人工妊娠中絶が合法化されている。フランスは旧ユーゴスラビアの1974年、2006年の(出産に関するセン選択の権利を認めた)セルビアに次いで、憲法上の権利ととして規定する国となった。米国連邦最高裁は2022年に女性の人工妊娠中絶の権利を剝奪する判決を下した。また、ポーランドでも近年中絶の制限が拡大されている。それらの動きがフランスが今回憲法修正の発端となった。

専門家は、「フランスにおいて中絶の権利は多数(最近の世論調査でも80%超)に支持されているが、アメリカのように極右勢力が拡大する可能性もある。憲法上で権利と明記することにより、将来反対派がこの権利を取り上げることを難しくする」とその意義を説明する。
