Section 1. In the interest of the protection of pregnant mothers and their unborn children from criminal offenses and neglect and wrongful acts, the words "person" and "child" in the fourteenth article of amendment to the Constitution of the United States must include unborn human beings.

Section 2. Nothing in this Constitution secures the right to an abortion or funding of an abortion.  Congress and the states retain the right to enact, amend, or repeal statutes regarding abortion, with the exception of circumstances of pregnancy resulting from rape or incest, or when necessary to save the life of the mother.

Section 3. All provisions of this article are self-executing and are severable.

Did you pretty much take Section 2 directly from the Tennessee Constitution?

-Life at Conception
-Marriage Protection Amendment
-RFRA-like Amendment
-Prohibition of income tax
-Clarification that the 4th Amendment doesn't apply to metadata, as it isn't a direct search
-Abolition of executive branch agencies, executive orders, and any presidential power not formally expressed in the Constitution
-Requiring all public-owned buildings to adopt a bathroom policy based on biological sex/gender at birth
-No international agencies can overrule US law

I don't think it would require an amendment, but I would like to see Title IX repealed as well.

     Fix the size of the Supreme Court at nine Justices.
Then how am I - er, we going to stack the Court when we come to power?

Another question with that is what the time period is when a vacancy occurs at which point it would have to be back to nine?  What if hearings and votes are happening, but the president and Senate cannot come to an agreement on any candidate?

An amendment to ban abortion nationwide without exceptions, modeled after the former Eighth Amendment to the Irish Constitution.
