We listen in today to a special conversation on the Constitution and the U.S. Supreme Court between Ed Whelan, President of the Ethics & Public Policy Center and Steve Aden, Chief Legal Officer & General Counsel of Americans United for Life. Steve leads the conversation as part of Americans United for Life’s Legal Fellows and Summer Internships program, a part of our commitment to equipping and empowering rising generations of attorneys and experts on the Constitution and the human right to life. Steve and Ed speak on originalism and textualism, the future of the U.S. Supreme Court as an institutional force in American life, and the future of Roe, Casey, and abortion jurisprudence in light of John Roberts’s June Medical services decision and how we forge ahead in the times to come.
