We done slipped… the Supreme Court takes us back decades - Passing Period #71
This Week: In what can only be understood as a horrid week in the history of American jurisprudence, the Supreme Court hands down two rulings that stand to do expansive harm to America’s children and school communities. In Carson v. Mankin the court decided that there is no longer a separation of church and state, and clears the way for public funds to be sent to religious schools. And in Dobbs.v Jackson Women’s Health, the Court overturned Roe v Wade, effectively outlawing abortion in half of the country, and condemning a generation of girls - many of whom will be pregnant because of sexual assult - to bring their rapist’s child oto term. Oh, and it paves the way for additional litigation to undo things like access to contraceptives, science based sex education, and other things that have lowered teen pregnancy rates in this country for decades. Whew. It’s a lot to process. Mauel and Jeff get into it, and discuss what this means, and where we do from here.
