What does the Supreme Court leak mean for our rights?
Manage episode 327798352 series 2738868
It was a bombshell week of legal news this week. A leaked draft opinion revealed that the Court is poised to eliminate abortion protections that have stood for nearly half a century. The opinion - if it is issued in its current form at the end of the term - has far-reaching implications for both abortion rights in America as well as collateral damage to other rights like access to birth control and same-sex marriage. And the unprecedented leak continues to erode the legitimacy of the court.
As expected, America will soon likely look very different, with a patchwork of legal protections for abortion determined on a state-by-state basis. In this episode Jessica talks about the leak, how and why she thinks it took place, and what the fallout may be.
