Summary
When Bill talked to Jacqueline Ayers, the Senior Vice president at Planned Parenthood for Policy, Campaigns and Advocacy, the word “rage” came up six times. Rage against this latest Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe V Wade. Rage against the state legislatures and governors who are instituting draconian abortion bans. Rage against the burdens put on health care providers who have to consult with lawyers, or look over their shoulder at prosecutors, when trying merely to save a woman's life. Plus they talk about how you can take action to mitigate this human rights disaster.
Today Bill highlights the work of Planned Parenthood which is not only providing reproductive care to millions of women, but also working hard to help us fight back against the narrowing of women's rights. Check out their action-oriented website, BansOff.org. This is full of information on how you can get involved in your state to protect a woman's right to choose.

| 1:13.3 | It wasn't entirely unexpected, thanks to an earlier leak of Justice Alito's draft opinion. |
| 1:19.7 | But nevertheless, on June 24, the Supreme Court sent a shockwave through the country by denying American women the freedom to make their own health care choices, |
| 1:24.8 | a freedom they've officially enjoyed for 50 years. It's up to the states |
| 1:31.1 | to decide, said the court, whether women enjoy the same health care freedom as men do, or whether |
| 1:37.7 | they'll be treated as second-class citizens. And already, we're seeing the results since June 24. 14 states have banned |
| 1:48.4 | women from seeking an abortion for any reason whatsoever, and 12 more states are |
