And I paid Apple's premium because life experience (more than 30 years

abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of

nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent. States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
