LAW AND DISORDER JULY 4, 2022
Lead Up To Roe v. Wade Overturn
Law and Disorder co-host Professor of Law Marjorie Cohn is interviewed about her extensive research on the Supreme Court and reproductive rights.
Since Roe v. Wade was decided in 1973, its opponents have mounted a sustained effort to overturn it. The Heritage Foundation and the Federalist Society (which is funded largely with untraceable dark money by wealthy right-wingers, climate damaging industries and conservative think tanks) compiled lists of anti-choice judges. Samuel Alito was helped into his seat on the court by Leonard Leo, former executive vice president of the Federalist Society.
