How 50 Years of Settled Law Gets Unsettled.  The hosts for this show are Tim Apicella and Jay Fidell.  The guests are Cynthia Lee Sinclair and Jeff Portnoy.  

A rare leak obtained by Politico reflects a U.S. Supreme Court draft opinion that Roe v. Wade abortion rights for women would be reversed after 50 years of settled case law. The leaked opinion written by Justice Samuel Alito would create a patchwork of actions across the country to preserve or abolish abortion rights. 

As this was a draft opinion, no formal vote from the court has taken place, therefore the decision is yet to be final. The question we must ask those justices who claimed that Roe v. Wade was settled law during their Senate Confirmation Committee Hearings, now voting to reverse it, is just how honest was their testimony to the Senate and the American public? The panel explores the many issues associated with the likely reversal of Roe v. Wade.
