It's the same as roe v wade 50 years ago. The Kansas court just made it all up . Their 2019 ruling says "pursuit of happiness" means right to abortion!!

april 26 2019 The Kansas Constitution protects a woman's right to an abortion, the state Supreme Court ruled Friday.
The landmark ruling now stands as the law of the land in Kansas with no path for an appeal. Because it turns on the state's Constitution, abortion would remain legal in Kansas even if the Roe v. Wade case that established a national right to abortion is ever reversed by the U.S. Supreme Court.
The decision turbocharged efforts among conservative legislators to ask voters to add an abortion ban to the Kansas Constitution. Lawmakers return to the capital, Topeka, next week.
The decision, in which one of the seven justices dissented, cites in its first sentence the first section of the Kansas Constitution's Bill of Rights: "All men are possessed of equal and inalienable natural rights, among which are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
The decision continues: "We are now asked: 'Is this declaration of rights more than an idealized aspiration? And, if so, do the substantive rights include a woman's right to make decisions about her body, including the decision whether to continue her pregnancy? We answer these questions, 'Yes.' "
The court continued that "this right allows a woman to make her own decisions regarding her body, health, family formation, and family life — decisions that can include whether to continue a pregnancy

The court also used the "my body my choice" argument but that has been voided after the vax mandates of the last couple years.

Don’t think anyone would believe a state constitution authored in the 19th Century specifically protected the right to an abortion. The right has always been inferred from language like that in the Kansas Constitution. You can bet politicians in Kansas will be in no hurry to seek a Constitutional amendment voiding abortion rights.

Or, if you say no to the vax mandates you must think women have the right to an abortion.
I don't really accept the hands off my body argument. Under Roe states could prohibit abortion after 24 weeks--therefore, Roe did not prevent government from controlling women's bodies after a certain time. Government can tell me I can't use certain drugs--that seems to be controlling my body.
If women have the right (rather than freedom) of abortion doesn't that give them a right men do not have?
