We talk this week to return guest, Professor Eric Berger who is a constitutional scholar from the Nebraska College of Law, and knows a thing or two about Roe v. Wade. For 49 years a woman has had the right to an abortion in the United States because of this ruling, but within the past year this constitutional right has been significantly restricted at the state level. With the Supreme Court set to offer an opinion on Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Orgnanization, which is a Mississippi law banning nearly all abortions after 15 weeks’ gestational age, proponents and opponents of the law are cautiously waiting to see how this might affect the future of abortions in the country. We discuss the law, implications and the likelihood that Roe v. Wade could be overturned in this episode!
