A New Front Line for Abortion Rights
Manage episode 485208901 series 2502803
After the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, abortions in the United States actually went up, in part because of a novel legal strategy that pitted blue states against red states.
Pam Belluck, who covers health and science for The Times, discusses that strategy and explains how proceedings against a New York doctor could take it apart.
Guest: Pam Belluck, a health and science reporter at The New York Times.
Background reading:
- The Louisiana case appears to be the first time criminal charges have been filed against an abortion provider for sending pills into a state with a ban.
- From 2024: Abortion shield laws are a new war between the states.
