Carol Sanger, author of About Abortion: Terminating Pregnancy in Twenty-First-Century America, explained the implications of the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization to viewers of CBS Sunday Morning.
Mary Ziegler, author of After Roe: The Lost History of the Abortion Debate, argued in the New York Times that the decades-long fight to reverse Roe was not an effort to “restore” democracy but instead an attempt to change the way American democracy functions (or doesn’t).

O. Carter Snead, author of What It Means to Be Human: The Case for the Body in Public Bioethics, explored at CNN Opinion why “Roe and its progeny have been very bad for America.”
