[NBC News Channel]
WASHINGTON (WHEC/AP) — The United States Supreme Court Wednesday will hear a Mississippi case that could change abortion rights nationwide.
The hearing is expected to begin around 10 a.m. You can listen to the live feed below, or click here if you’re on a mobile device.
The case being argued before the nation’s high court Wednesday is about a 2018 Mississippi law that would ban most abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy. The state’s Republican attorney general is asking the court – remade with three conservative justices nominated by former President Donald Trump – to use the case to overturn Roe v. Wade, the court’s 1973 ruling that declared a nationwide right to abortion.
