The Human Life Amendment is the name for any amendment to the United States Constitution that would have the effect of overturning Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court of the United States|Supreme Court decision that denied states the authority to prohibit abortion. Although all of these amendments are intended to overturn Roe v. Wade, most of them go further, by forbidding both the federal government and the states from making abortion legal. Several different Human Life Amendments have been proposed in Congress since 1973. No Human Life Amendment, however, has ever been approved by Congress.
