Reform, Repression, & Reproductive Rights (Live from Texas!)

This week Kate and Melissa are live from the Texas Tribune Festival with a couple of dream guests. First, Representative Jamie Raskin joins to discuss how Congress can rein in our ethically questionable Supreme Court. Then, they speak with activist Amanda Zurawski, lead plaintiff in Zurawski v. State of Texas, whose story tragically illuminates the cost of “pro-life” laws. Finally, a look at SCOTUS’s enabling of voter suppression and the latest shenanigans of the always-spirited Ginni Thomas.
