Thursday video--with transcript, without transcript.
We continue with Reproductive Freedom, which will cover the entire class. In addition to the cases assigned, read June Medicial (from spring 2020), which is posted on the blog. Consider:
• How did the Court get to minors being able to obtain contraception? Do minors have the same rights of privacy?
• What was the logic behind the move from contraception to abortion as an application of the right to privacy?
• How has the doctrine evolved from Roe to Casey to Whole Women's Health to June Medical? Read June Medical and note the voting breakdown on the Court and the logic of the Chief Justice's concurring opinion. What is the controlling doctrine at this point?
• Consider the role of stare decisis, generally and in these cases, and how it operates at SCOTUS.
• Does the distinction between the right and funding of the right make sense?
For the week, I am going to give you wide berth: Prep Right to Die, Sexual Liberty, and Family; I doubt we will get to all three, but let that be your guidepost if you are studying ahead.
