Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to break down the upcoming cases on the Supreme Court docket, focusing on their review of cases under Title VII, the pernicious effects of taking too long to issue rulings on critical issues in the Trump era, and the concept of DIG (dismissed as improvidently granted).  Then, the #Sisters explain how EMTLA is protecting women from the aftermath of the Dobbs decision, the ongoing challenges faced by healthcare providers, and if the executive branch has gone too far.  They also challenge the legality of Trump’s resurrected travel bans and highlight the importance of diversity in the success of our country.

Welcome back to hashtag sisters-in-law with Kimberly Atkins Store, Jill Wine Banks,

0:15.0

Barb McQuaid, and me, Joyce fans. Before we start the show, big news for the knitters

0:20.7

among our listeners, but also for

0:22.5

everybody else, the new hashtag Sisters in Law Resistance Minnetot is finally ready for order,

0:34.1

Are you less interested? Kim, what are your thoughts? Yeah, I mean, just to the second part,
