To be fair to Pb, the phrase "any person" does not refer to citizenship.

That is simply not true. There are a number of Federal laws against murder.

Uh... say what, now?
Title 18 of the US Code deals specifically with the crime of... murder.

The red tsunami looks to have turned into a red wavelet. At best they may pick up enough seats in the house for a bare majority. But I have my doubts about even that happening.

Anybody with a bit of sense could have seen this coming when most of the battleground states are more or less Dem controlled along with their election processes.
And even if somehow there was a Red Wave you can always count on enough RINOs to “cross the aisle in the name of bipartisanship” to pass Dem legislation and *expletive deleted*ck us all over.

There should be no need to have federal laws against abortion, as the states should give legal protection against slaughter to unborn people within their jurisdiction.
The problem is that sometimes state governments refuse to provide legal protection to people they disfavor. This is why the 14th Amendment was written... some Democrat-controlled governments were allowing black people to be disarmed, whipped, killed, disenfranchised and so on. The 14th allows the federal government to step in and protect rights of groups of people when the state government refuses to do so.
So if a state legalizes killing Chinese, the federal government is authorized to prevent the murder of Chinese people in that state with legislation. It is the same with children before birth.
