I'm not sure what the point of this is. Even if Roe v Wade is overruled at the federal level, why does abortion need to be a state constitutional right in New York rather than merely legal by state statute? Barring a tangible good reason, the seems like just Cuomo trying to play up his liberal Bona fides for "some reason".

Also worth pointing out that the timing is horrendous considering his tactic here is to hold up the budget for the sake of getting his way on a social issue.
