If that's the issue then surely it's easier to reverse the judicial precedent than to amend the constitution.
My understanding is the vast majority of Americans are in favour of harmonization at a federal level. In the original days of the USA I think citizens identified more with their state than the country as a whole. Outside of Texas that is no longer the case.
