Common Ground With Jane Whitney

Scotus: Breakpoint?

Season 1, Episode 5 of 13

The Trump administration's signature achievement was the expansion of the Supreme Court's conservative majority and the confirmation of hundreds of lower court judges, the capstone of conservatives' 30-year mission to restructure the courts in their own image. Case by case, the Supreme Court is rewriting the rules that have long structured the way we live, how we are governed, how we worship, even who we are. Immigration. Health care. Political representation. Reproductive and religious rights. . . It's hard to find any aspect of daily life beyond the reach of the court's long tentacles. In this episode, some of the country's most celebrated court watchers explore how the court's most recent verdicts could impact the way we live.
