Life Matters

from WBCA Podcasts

Colbe Mazzarella hosts this week's episode of Life Matters where Professor Michael New is interviewed. Michael is an Assistant Professor of Social Research at the Busch School of Business at The Catholic University of America, researching pro-life issues through scientific methods including his background in statistics and political science. Topics discussed in this episode revolve around the changes being made to abortion laws across the country as consequence of the Dobbs decision by The Supreme Court in 2022, where the previous Roe v. Wade ruling that recognized a woman's constitutional right to abortion was overturned. Informed consent laws, The Hyde Amendment (a federal law that restricts the use of federal funds, including those from Medicaid, for most abortions), "chemical abortions" and their increased risks, pregnancy resources and their availability, and the trend in abortion rates formulate the conversation offered on Life Matters by Colbe and Michael as they navigate the current state of abortion laws impacting the nation.
