The Supreme Court on Tuesday said that a provision of an Indiana law could take effect.

Now, that provision mandates the burial or cremation of fetal remains.

In that same decision, the court decided to keep a different

part of the law blocked. Now, that part bans abortion based on the race, sex, or disability

of a fetus. In a separate concurring opinion, Justice Clarence Thomas confirmed what we here

at Boom Lawyard have been telling you.

Conservatives are not just coming for abortion rights.

They're coming for your birth control too.

In this episode, we explained Tuesday's decision and what it means for fetal remains requirements

and reason bans moving forward in other states.

We also walk through the part of Justice Thomas's opinion that equates modern-day family

planning with eugenics and show how it telegraphs the direction the court's conservatives would

like to take reproductive rights jurisprudence.

Hint, they'd like to roll it back about 50 years or so.

Shocking.
