If reciprocal enforcement can allow Texas to force NY to follow their laws, then why can’t NY force Texas to provide abortions?
Looks like a Chernobyl patient
Texas politicians are so shit they need to infect other states.
Get your shit together Texas.
They won’t.
We’ll just have to do what we’ve always done and sit back and watch Texans continually punch themselves in the face because they can’t figure things out.
To wit: there’s a NY state law that makes it illegal for state officials to help shit-ass states like Texas follow through on legal threats like this within the context of the NY legal system. This is that law working as intended.
Or more succinctly: lick my taint, Ken Paxton, you fucking imbecilic psychopath.
it’s only a matter of time before the supreme court forces new york to comply; i hope that the doctor is prepared for this and finds another way to help with protecting themself.
when slavery was a thing, the shitty laws from shitty states to reclaim escaped slaves took primacy over laws from abolitionist states that would have protected them due to the supreme court and it took a war to overcome it.
The US Supreme Court can’t currently do what you say without a law change at the federal level.
Also, the 13th Amendment which abolished slavery (mostly) was passed by Congress on January 31, 1865, and ratified on December 6, 1865 after the end of the US Civil War.
Do you think the actual law matters to the Supreme Court? They act more like priests now.
I didn’t think about what matters to SCOTUS at all.
The law still matters to people and that’s what’s important. Only after we, abandon the rule of law will there be a complete breakdown of society and a descent into chaos and anarchy.
I know from all the doom posting I see on Lemmy that many don’t, but I still have hope.
We’ve been literally dismantling the first amendment (Establishment clause particularly). And the fourteenth (the whole fucking thing by EO).
