Welcome back to Just For This. Each week, host Rabbi Liz P.G. Hirsch (she/her) interviews women in leadership about women and leadership. Inspired by the story of Esther, we feature powerful stories of women who stand out in their fields, who have stepped up just for this moment.

Our guest this week is Lisa Lerer, a national political correspondent for the New York Times, covering the intersection of campaigns, elections, and political power. She is co-author of The Fall of Roe: The Rise of a New America, a book chronicling the fate of federal abortion rights over the past decade.

We discuss the dismantling of Roe v. Wade, women's leadership in politics and beyond, and what's at stake in this crucial health care arena in the months and years ahead.
