The Supreme Court of the United States is reconsidering a nearly 50-year history of its own ruling on abortion. Under Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, the Mississippi Legislature said there can be no abortion after 15 weeks. This directly challenges the Supreme Court’s two previous rulings on the matter, Roe v. Wade (1973), and Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992). In this episode, Stephen discusses Dobbs, the precedents set in 1973 and 1992, and recent comments from Supreme Court justices. With a 6-3, conservative-liberal breakdown on the Supreme Court, what happens next, whatever the outcome, will make history. America currently has some of the most supportive abortion laws in the world, ranking alongside China and North Korea. Will they be upheld, or will decisions go back to the states?
