two hours of arguments on Mississippi's strict abortion law in an intensely watched case that could change abortion rights in our country Roe V wade legalized abortion nearly 50 years ago and the

about a Mississippi ban on abortion after 15 weeks chief justice John Roberts is among conservative members questioning the viability line Why is 15 weeks not enough time The court could simply uphold the Mississippi law and say nothing else but abortion rights supporters say that would still effectively overturn roe V wade Sonia son of mayor and other liberal justices suggest that may create a public perception that the high court is simply a political arm Where this institution survived the stench Sagar Meghani Washington William married a law professor Neil devons telling WTP the implications of the case extend far beyond abortion rights he says if roe is overturned the decision could affect the future of the high court itself It will call into question what justice Kagan said which is whether the court is a political court and presidents can change doctrine through appointments And that may raise a specter of other issues involving court reform There's a commission that President Biden has approved as making recommendations governing the court size and other issues and calls for court reform will grow much louder if the court overturns roe not to mention what might happen with the abortion case itself and the abortion right itself And that is William and Mary law professor Neil Devin some new information tonight about the accused gunman in the school shooting
