All eyes are on the U.S. Supreme Court as the nation awaits a decision about the possible overturning of Roe v. Wade.
On Wednesday’s edition of “Closer Look,” Anthony Michael Kreis, a law professor at the Georgia State University of Law, discusses the latest news, including the impact the ruling could have on the LGBTQ community.
“People will always have abortions when they need them. The question is whether the government will allow them to happen in a way that is regulated, that is safe, and that, you know, is equitable. And if we don’t do that, the consequence of it is life or death, and that opinion just to no consideration of that whatsoever, it just completely ignored the need of everyday Americans,” said Kreis.
During the conversation, Professor Kreis explained why some fear the future of same-sex marriage is at stake.
“I think gender-affirming healthcare is acutely endangered by Roe being overturned,” also said Kreis.
