Explain why there is a CONSTITUTIONAL controversy over whether or not women have the right to have an abortion. How do supporters believe the Constitution protects the right to an abortion? Be specific. On the other hand, what argument is used by individuals and groups who argue that there is no Constitutional basis for the protection of abortion access? Each of these assignments should be written in essay format. These assignments should be at least 800 words each. You should rely on the material in the textbook to answer these prompts. If you write an essay that contains your opinion and does not rely MOSTLY on course material, your grade will be substantially negatively affected.
