Special Edition: What’s Next in a Post-Roe America
Listen below:
Tune in weekdays for 10-min daily news roundups:
It’s official: The U.S. Supreme Court released its ruling yesterday that effectively overturns Roe v. Wade, which had guaranteed a woman’s right to an abortion for nearly 50 years. Now, it’ll be up to the states to decide whether to ban or restrict abortions. We’ve been expecting this decision ever since a draft opinion was leaked back in May. But today, we’re asking: what happens next?
One legal expert tells us she expects”‘chaos” and “confusion.” Attorney Greer Donley, an assistant professor at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law, is sharing the potential legal consequences of the Supreme Court ruling. She recently co-authored a paper published in the Columbia Law Review about this topic called “The New Abortion Battleground.”
And later, we get the response and reaction from the president of Texas Right to Life, who also has his doctorate in bioethics and health policy, Dr. John Seago. A quick note that we spoke with both guests shortly before the final Supreme Court decision was announced.
