More than two years ago, the U.S. Supreme Court ended the constitutional right to abortion with the Dobbs decision. Now, more than half of all women — about 33 million — live in states where abortion is either banned or restricted. Reproductive rights and law will continue to evolve, including under the incoming Trump administration. Kimberly Mutcherson is a professor at Rutgers Law School, a visiting professor at Temple University’s Beasley School of Law and an expert in reproductive justice and law. She joins Soledad O’Brien in-studio to explain how abortion laws could change in the coming years.
