i ve had people in my family have abortions and they have felt the regret years and years down the line. and they re still dealing with it and facing the trauma today. going back to needles and the whole thing, i m stunned. i don t understand. we cannot agonize over it. we have to get organized. and just throw these people out. eventually we are going to die. women are going to die between now and when we can get legislation passed. this ruling automatically clears the way for abortion bans in 13 states. at least six states have already put them into effect. we have a lot to cover. so let s get smarter, and bring in our lead off panel, dahlia, senior member of slate and nbc analyst, barbara mcquade, former u.s. attorney for the eastern district of michigan. she worked at the department of during the biden administration. and a professor with a ....
Government, have each filed lawsuits challenging that under the michigan constitution. and so far, a judge has entered a preliminary injunction. saying that it appears that they may be likely to succeed on the merits. and holding it in advance until she can decide the case on the merits. and i think the lesson for the rest of the country is, this idea that these maybe need to be fought in the states. per hats there are states constitutional provisions to protect a woman s right to choose. it s not an explicit issue in the constitution but there are provisions, and equal protection clause, and the issue is about bodily autonomy. the same one that was used, by the way, to challenge vaccines, and masking, and shutdown orders, earlier in the pandemic. so there may be a lesson there for other states. dahlia, even though before the ruling yesterday, the ....
