After a Supreme Court term unlike any other in nearly a century, confidence in what was once a revered body has sunk to a historic low. Only 25 percent of Americans report having confidence in the United States Supreme Court.
In this episode we are joined by a sold-out, live studio audience at the Irvine Barclay Theatre to capture the 2022 Supreme Court Term in Review. Our host, Dr. Michele Goodwin, along with leading national experts, explore critical rulings from this term, including: Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization , which overturned 49-year-old federal abortion protections established in Roe v. Wade ; New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen , which struck down a 111-year-old state protection requiring gun owners to show “proper cause” for concealed carry licenses; West Virginia v. EPA , which ruled the agency has no executive jurisdiction to regulate certain greenhouse gas emissions; and more.
“I believe there will be a point, maybe not in my lifetime, when Dobbs is overruled. I believe there will be a point that these terrible decisions we've been talking about will be overruled, but it'll only happen if all of us work to make it happen.” — Erwin Chemerinsky
“I think the story of how the Court has responded to the pandemic is a story of the executive branch trying to take action, and the courts undermining them.” — Aziza Ahmed
“Federal statutes do not enforce themselves. We need agencies to do it, and the six conservative justices hate those agencies.” — Mark Joseph Stern
“Why look at history at all given the fact that when it serves the conservative theocratic agenda, history sometimes matters, sometimes not, so long as they can read history to get to the result they want?” — Mary Anne Franks
“The final draft and the leaked draft are in salient ways identical. One of the things that that tells you about Dobbs is not only that Dobbs will send shock waves through our constitutional order, not only that the Supreme Court has destroyed a constitutional right that's 50 years old, but essentially that the court doesn't care what anybody else thinks about what it's doing.” — Mary Ziegler
“The Mississippi Attorney General went back to the court and said, actually, won't you consider just overturning Roe? That's actually what we really want. They didn't have to, and Roberts in his concurring opinion said, you didn't have to, and didn't support it.” — Regina Mahone
