The future of abortion access in America is not secure, as recent developments have shown. In September, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to enjoin Texas’ SB8, allowing a sweeping abortion ban to go into effect. Later this fall, the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments for Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, a case which threatens to overturn Roe v. Wade.
Bring your questions about these ongoing issues to this townhall discussion. Panelists include noted historian of abortion Mary Ziegler, constitutional law scholar Jeannie Suk Gersen, obstetrician/gynecologist and director of reproductive bioethics at Harvard Medical School’s Center for Bioethics, Louise Perkins King, in conversation with I. Glenn Cohen, faculty director of the Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics at Harvard Law School.
Topics of discussion will be selected in advance from Harvard student submissions.
