Friday round-up

There is still more coverage of Wednesday’s oral arguments in the challenge to Texas’s abortion regulations, from Bill Mears of Fox News.  Commentary comes from Mark Joseph Stern and Dahlia Lithwick of Slate, Steven Mazie of The Economist (who also has an explainer on changes in abortion law), Leah Litman at casetext, Greg Lipper at Bill of Health, Mary Ziegler at Hamilton and Griffin on Rights, and David Gans in New Republic.
