“This is a really dire moment where we need to keep our eyes on the next step,” said Sunu Chandy, legal director at the National Women’s Law Center, echoing the concerns of myriad progressive groups that are afraid of what’s to come and gearing up to fight.

It’s a reminder of how perilous this situation already is, and of how much farther there is to go before hitting bottom.
