During this week's episode of NAPS Chat, American University Constitutional Law Professor Stephen Wermiel joins Bob Levi to discuss  the historical context of the U.S. Postal Service being deployed as the nation's morality police. This issue has emerged  from the shadows as the result of the U.S. Department of Justice's  recent memorandum declaring that mailing prescription medication that may terminate a pregnancy does not violate the  1873 Comstock Act.
