Part 1:
We talk with Sarah E. Patterson, Research Investigator at Survey Research Center at the U. of Michigan.
We discuss proposals by Gov. Whitmer of Michigan for providing tax credits for caregivers of elderly or disabled members of families. The US has an aging demographic, and 38 to 53 million Americans provide care services at home to family members. This is a cost of about $90,000/year to the caregivers. Loss of wages, opportunities, and other costs are part of this.
Part 2:
We talk with Mark Joseph Stern, Senior Reporter for Slate.com.
The Arizona Supreme Court (all Republicans) has resurrected a “zombie law” (1864) to ban all abortions. The court was expanded by Republicans to overcome any moderate justices who might remain. The original law was proposed by a child rapist, and, obviously, a misogynist. It was proposed at a time when Arizona was NOT a state, and women were not allowed to vote. The danger is that such laws exist in many other states. The Comstock Act was cited by the US Supreme Court, and the problem is that it will be used in ALL states, now that MAGA lawmakers have the opportunity, with the makeup of the current US Supreme Court.
