From New York, this is democracy now.

It's a sad day today, Israeli democracy, the slow will enable this government to pass

any law that they would like to appoint any person to a position, regardless of their

skills or background, and we're going to fight back.

Mass protests are continuing in Israel after lawmakers approved a divisive bill to gut

the power of the Supreme Court.

We'll speak to two Israeli journalists who've criticized both Benjamin Netanyahu's government

for pushing the judicial reform, as well as the mass protest movement for not advocating

for Palestinian rights as well.

Then to the U.S., the fight for reproductive rights.

19 attorneys' generals are demanding access to people's private medical records to evaluate

whether someone has had an abortion out of their states.

This is a disgusting overreach of government authority designed only to terrorize and intimidate

patients seeking legal health care.

We'll go to Kentucky to speak with plan parenthood.

Then we'll talk to a leading Kurdish American activist who just walked from Washington,

D.C. to the United Nations to rally support for Kurdish rights.

My name is Connie Zulam.

I am a Kurd, one out of 50 million stateless ones in the world.

I am also one of the organizers of our long walk for freedom.

All that and more coming up.

Welcome to Democracy Now, democracynow.org, the Warren Peace Report.
