We'll be gone for the summer, so I thought that I would leave you with a treat. Every week day this summer we'll be posting a new mini crossword that you can print or solve online. Have fun with those!
This past week was noteworthy for the Supreme Court; along with rulings on religion and gun rights, the court overturned Roe Vs. Wade, a landmark decision that guaranteed the right to an abortion. Justices voted 6 to 3 to uphold the specific Mississippi abortion ban in Dobbs Vs. Jackson, and 5 to 4 - Chief Justice John Roberts joining the dissenting opinion - to overturn Roe and all later court cases that ensure Roe.
At the moment, 7 states, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Alabama have already instituted abortion bans while others are expected to ban abortion in the coming months. 20 states are protecting or expanding abortion rights. This week, we’ll talk to legal historian and author Mary Ziegler. She’s written extensively about the battle over abortion rights and the conservative movement to end abortion. Her latest book, Dollars for Life, focuses on the rise of the pro life movement because of campaign spending.
Today we'll be speaking to someone who knows the history of both the pro and anti abortion movements well. You might have heard Professor Mary Ziegler on NPR or read her Op - Eds in The Atlantic, The New York Times, or The LA Times. Her latest book on the anti - abortion movement is called Dollars For Life: The Anti - Abortion Movement And The Fall Of The Republican Establishment.
We'll talk about the legal reasoning behind the Supreme Court's decision, how the Republican party has shifted to regarding Roe as a key issue, and how states that will enact abortion bans will enforce such restrictions.
At the end of the show we’ll catch up with a voter that I spoke to before the 2020 election. He’s a conservative who supports the decision of the Supreme Court to overturn Roe.
