Dobbs
did
not
top
the
list
of
things
I
wanted
to
talk
about
on
vacation.
—
Justice
Amy
Coney
Barrett,
discussing
the
aftermath
of
the
controversial
Dobbs
v.
Jackson
Women’s
Health
Organization
decision
in
her
new
memoir,
“Listening
to
the
Law”
(affiliate

set
to
be
published
on
September
9.
Barrett,
who
in
the
book
defends
the
part
she
played
in
overturning
the
right
to
abortion
established
by
Roe
v.
Wade,
recounts
a
time
when
her
brother-in-law
came
to
a
family
vacation
with
a
copy
of
the
Dobbs
decision,
saying
he
was
following
her
instructions
to
“read
the
opinion.”
