Sarah Longwell, host of the podcast The Focus Group—and also host of actual bona-fide, gold-standard focus groups—reports on the changing sentiment after the Dobbs ruling. Plus, a president tries to shame companies into lowering prices, while a governor thinks now is the time for fiscal stimulus. And the Highland Park shooter is, in some ways, atypical, but, at the same, time horrifyingly familiar.
A shooter opened fire on a July 4th parade route in suburban Chicago, killing seven people and injuring dozens more. Reset checks in with WBEZ education reporter Sarah Karp and Chicago Sun-Times Washington Bureau Chief Lynn Sweet, who was at the parade, for the latest on how the community is responding.
Dr. Tali Raviv, associate director of the Center for Childhood Resilience at Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, explains how to discuss the tragic mass shooting in Highland Park, Ill., with children of different ages.
The Highland Park shooter was arrested “peacefully” despite being heavily armed. Meanwhile, an unarmed Black man in Akron, Ohio, was shot 60 times and killed by officers. Reset checks in with Brookings Institution senior fellow Rashawn Ray, who says the two stories help illustrate the fact that Black people are many times more likely than white people to be killed by police in the U.S.

Trigger bans. Restraining orders. State and local disputes. New fights about old laws. After Roe, states are awash in abortion-related legal challenges. Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer tells NPR 'there's a lot of confusion,' and 'it's a terribly anxious time.'
The chaos has trickled down from state courts to individual abortion care providers, where staff and patients have been struggling to adjust to rapidly-changing legal realities. NPR's Sarah McCammon visited one provider in Shreveport, Louisiana.
The shifting legal realities could make accessing abortion care difficult for members of the military who are stationed in certain states. NPR's Brian Mann spoke to women in the military about their concerns.
