		<description>James Joyner: &lt;i&gt;&quot;Thereâs certainly precedent for [states outlawing travel to do something illegal if done within the state].&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

Well, I can&#039;t think of any such precedent in the US, unless you count laws concerning minors, and laws against bringing contraband back to the outlawing state. We can all fly to Amsterdam, states never prevented going to Nevada to gamble or get a divorce, or other countries or states to drink during Prohibition and then when some states had prohibition. Even Robert Bork pointed to freedom to travel (including to leave a jurisdiction) as an example of a fundamental right from English common law, even though unenumerated in the Constitution. The Mann Act against traveling across state lines for &quot;immoral purposes&quot; was a federal law whose state-line crossing requirement was a limitation on the law, back when the feds saw more limited jurisdiction over intrastate issues. I am aware of no states making a similar law.

Would you name some such precedents?</description>

		<description>[...] James Joyner of Outside the Beltway agrees that it would cause some chaos, but that it should still be over turned.  Yes, there are states where conservative Christians are such an overwhelming majority that almost no abortions would be legal were it up to their state legislatures and perhaps two or three states where women would be free to abort their baby at the last minute just because they felt like it. But, even left to their own devices, almost all states would have essentially the same abortion rules that they have now. [...]</description>

		<description>I concur that the ultimate result would look an awful lot like the status quo.

The only states I am convinced would outright ban abortion are Utah and Mississippi.  And, quite frankly, it is almost banned in Mississippi as it is (I am not sure of the situation in Utah at the moment).

I am not convinced that it would be banned in Alabama, to be honest.</description>
