We the People Act removes the jurisdiction from the federals courts, because the federal courts should never have even took the case (Roe v Wade) in the first place. It's a state matter, as all other acts of violence are.

The federal courts, despite your assumptions, do not have the right to rule over anything they choose to.  They are only allowed to rule on things that are related to the powers delegated in the Constitution.   States can and should do all the rest.  That is their obligation.

Religious matters are not covered in the Constitution? Because, unless I'm suddenly having an incredibly difficult time comprehending the English language, that's what the first half of the We The People Act is all about...

I have not read the Act, I am only speaking about how it would be used to wipe Roe v Wade from the pages of time, and make abortion a state issue once again, as it was and should be again.  If you have the link to the Act, I'd be happy to take a look at it, and then let you know whether or not I agree that it's bad legislation.

But I will say that I support any legislation that seeks to overturn Court cases and other pieces of legislation. It is better to repeal things then to add things to a list that is already far too long.  I am speaking in generalities, of course.  Obviously, with the Civil Rights Act, all but 1 provision were advisable.

I linked the act in the OP. Shit, I even quoted several lines from it in my OP as well. It's all of 25 lines long. I suggest you take a look at it and then respond.
