RESOLUTION Congratulating the pro-life movement on its historic victory in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization..
AI Summary
This Resolution congratulates the pro-life movement on its significant achievement in the Supreme Court case *Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization*, which overturned the landmark *Roe v. Wade* decision. The resolution frames *Roe v. Wade* as an act of judicial overreach that created a federal constitutional right to abortion without basis in the Constitution, leading to millions of abortions and societal division. It highlights the decades of work by pro-life advocates, including volunteers and organizations, who have championed the rights of the unborn and sought to foster a "culture of life." The resolution emphasizes that the *Dobbs* decision does not ban abortion but rather returns the authority to regulate or permit abortions to individual states, allowing citizens to decide through democratic processes. It also commends the Supreme Court for this decision and reaffirms Congress's commitment to the safety of pro-life supporters and public officials, while condemning violence and threats.
