About this listen

Join Atlas Society Senior Scholar and Professor of Political Economy at Duke Richard Salsman, Ph.D. for a Spaces discussion on recent changes to the GOP’s stance on abortion.

"In its 2024 platform, the Republican Party materially altered, for the better, its formal stance on abortion, away from the oxymoronic 'unborn child' language of 2016. This could be the start of something good and permanent. Thankfully the GOP has a 'pro-choice wing' headed by Nancy Mace (Rep-SC). Also, the ending of Roe v. Wade (1973) by SCOTUS in 2022, although problematic, at least allowed extended abortion rights to women in many states. In time, we could see a full, universal right." - Richard Salsman
