It is unconscionable that today, in 2021, #SCOTUS is poised to wipe away fifty years of women’s empowerment and rights and return to the days when the state could make pregnant people prisoners in their own bodies, forcing them to carry out the wishes of the state. (1/3)
The only reason we are here, where we fear #SCOTUS taking away a constitutional right, is because of the Right’s packing of the Court. If not for such court packing, we would almost certainly not face this very grim reality where abortion access could soon be taken away. (2/3)
The Supreme Court’s credibility is already in peril. Overturning Roe will confirm that this conservative supermajority is driven not by law or precedent, but by a naked partisan agenda. @acslaw #SCOTUS#reproductiverights#ReformtheCourt (3/3)

The first federal execution since 2003 is schedule for July 13, 2020, with three additional executions following just days later. 1/4
U.S. Attorney General William Barr has scheduled these executions despite pending litigation in these cases and serious concerns about the legality, constitutionality, and humaneness of federal execution protocols. 2/4
Join @acslaw on July 8 at 1:30 pm eastern for a discussion of the federal death penalty-- the reasons for the nearly 20 yr moratorium on federal executions... 3/4
