The idea
In Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization (2022) the Court held the Constitution confers no right to abortion.

The decision overruled Roe and Casey, returning the question to elected legislatures rather than settling it.
Where people slip
Removing a federal constitutional right leaves state law in control, and state law differs and keeps changing.
