In this sample from the CAFE Insider podcast, Preet and Joyce discuss the Supreme Court order rejecting a request to block Texas’s new restrictive abortion law from going into effect. They also break down the justices’ dissents, and conservative media’s response to the order. 

In the full episode, Preet and Joyce break down the ways in which the Texas law restricts abortion rights, the workings of the Court’s shadow docket, and the proposed legislation that would codify Roe v. Wade.
