OA9: Abortion, Roe v. Wade, and the Constitution, Part 1
Added 2016-08-31 04:23:30 +0000 UTChttp://openargs.com/oa9-abortion-roe-v-wade-constitution-part-1/
In Episodes 7 and 8, we discussed a recent decision by a federal court in Missouri dismissing a lawsuit brought by the Satanic Temple challenging certain Missouri laws that arguably restrict abortion rights. In this episode, we take a step back and look at the right to abortion itself and the sometimes-controversial Supreme Court decision of Roe v. Wade.
Our opening segment answers a listener question from Russ Kanjorski about the future of the Supreme Court, and fan favorite "Closed Arguments" continues with a look at the Cato Institute's survey and ranking of states by "freedom." (Hint: it has nothing to do with actual freedom, apparently.)
