Resisting unprecedented political and ideological pressure—including public violence and an attempted assassination of a sitting Justice—the U.S. Supreme Court just issued two 6-3 decisions demonstrating the majority’s resolve. In Bruen, the Court struck down New York state’s discretionary handgun licensing law, as a violation of the 2nd Amendment. In Dobbs, it ruled that there is no Constitutional right to abortion, as asserted by Roe, and that therefore states, not federal courts, have jurisdiction over abortion law. Was the Court wise—or foolish—to turn a blind eye to public opinion regarding these momentous rulings?
We will discuss these issues and more in this week’s episode of Independent Outlook, featuring Independent Institute President Graham Walker, Ph.D. ([link removed]) , and Independent’s Director of the Center on Educational Excellence, Williamson Evers, Ph.D ([link removed]) . For this unusual discussion, they will be joined in this week’s discussion by two experts on Supreme Court jurisprudence: Stephen P. Halbrook ([link removed]) , author of The Right to Bear Arms, and William Watkins, Jr. ([link removed]) , author of Crossroads for Liberty.
We hope that you will participate with questions and learn more about our unique Outlook—informed by the principles of liberty and human dignity, and based on scholarly integrity and respect for the facts.
