The Wide Reach of Dobbs - Impacts Beyond Abortion
1.0 Substantive Credits
On June 24, 2022, the US Supreme Court held in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that the federal constitution confers no right to abortion, overturning Roe v. Wade and leaving abortion regulation to the states. But Dobbs is far more than an abortion case. In this panel, experts on substantive due process, FDA law and regulation, and public health will discuss the broader impacts of the ruling and what to expect next.
