Why some conservative lawmakers want to end no-fault divorce

Season 2024 Episode 203 | 6m 30s

Right now, couples in all 50 states who want to end their marriage can get what’s called a no-fault divorce, where neither side has to prove that the other did something wrong. But some Republican lawmakers in a handful of red states want to get rid of it, saying it’s unfair to men and makes divorce “too easy.” Law professor Joanna Grossman joins John Yang to discuss.
