U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer has done it again!

The June Medical Services v. Russo decision is in, and it’s 5-4 in favor of the very obvious truth: Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt already decided this shit. Chief Justice John Roberts is forced to concur, but his dissent lays out a troubling roadmap for the next round of anti-choice restrictions. Jessica Mason Pieklo and Imani Gandy explain all of this and more in the latest episode of Boom! Lawyered.

And on Tuesday, June 30 at 11 a.m. Eastern, join Jess and Imani for a Rewire.News Instagram Live discussion of the case—tell your friends!
