The Beginning of the End for Roe v Wade? | EWTN News Nightly

The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments this Fall on a case which could dramatically affect abortion in the United States. The court will hear a case involving the state of Mississippi, which is seeking to enforce its ban on abortion after 15 weeks. A decision favorable to the state could lay the groundwork for allowing more restrictions on abortion. Several states are seeking to ban abortion once a baby's heartbeat is detected, usually after 6 weeks. McCormick Professor of Juris-Prudence and director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton University, Professor Robert George, joins to tell us more about this case, Dobbs v Jackson's Women's Health Organization, and why it is so important for the pro-life movement. Some say this case could be the beginning of the end of Roe v Wade. George discusses why that is being said and whether that could in fact be the case. On another note, the professor explains the importance of attending Mass in person rather than virtually, as Churches across the US are re-opening following the pandemic.
