The court ruled that the “privileges and immunities” clause protected rights guaranteed by U.S. citizenship but not those guaranteed by individual state citizenship. The guests also responded to viewer questions and comments. A video clip was shown of an interview with Senate Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Patrick Leahy (D-VT).
