The Atlantic's Executive Editor Adrienne LaFrance discusses a post-Roe America with two contributing writers. Legal historian Mary Ziegler and constitutional law scholar David French answer questions about what happens now that Roe v. Wade has been overturned. How will abortion bans be enforced? What will come of the legal and legislative battle moving to the states? And what other rights could the Court revoke?

What happens now?

A new podcast from The Atlantic and WNYC Studios, The Experiment, tells stories from our unfinished country.

At a time when we’re surrounded by preventable deaths, we document one journey to avert disaster.
