In this episode of the Truly Salem podcast, host Donna Salem explores the overturning of Roe v. Wade and its significant impact on abortion rights. The episode covers the legal challenges, particularly those from Mississippi, that opposed the standards set by the landmark case. Donna also discusses the conservative-dominated Supreme Court and its influence on the decision, and the legal doctrine, 'Stare Decisis,' which typically discourages from overturning established precedents. The podcast examines the role of 'State Laws and Trigger Laws' designed to limit or ban abortions, along with the influence of public and political pressure. Through these discussions, Donna aims to shed light on factors that led to the permanent reshaping of abortion rights in the US.
