If 76,000 ballots can be collected, Colorado voters will be able to vote in 2008 to define a fertilized egg as a person in the state constitution. If the measure passes, Colorado would join 15 other states who have bans on abortion that would go into effect if Roe v. Wade is overturned.

There seems to be a slowly increasing anti-abortion ground swell indicating a growing anti-abortion sentiment throughout the country. Could Colorado and 19 other states similarly amend their laws for the requisite two-thirds needed to propose a federal constitutional amendment to permanently overthrow Roe?
Florida is not among the states with laws banning abortion. After the marriage amendment is passed, whenever it happens, perhaps the next priority should be to make the murder of unborn babies illegal in Florida state law.
