Moyers & Company. What's Fueling the Modern Abortion Debate?
Description
This year marks the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the U.S. Supreme Court decision that overturned many federal and state restrictions on a woman's right to an abortion. But while polls show that most Americans support the decision, and that a majority believes abortion should be legal in all or most cases, antiabortion forces show no sign of relenting. In this edition of Moyers & Company, Bill discusses the changing face of the reproductive rights movement and those it serves - as well as the success of social conservatives on the abortion front - with Jessica González-Rojas, executive director of the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health, and Lynn Paltrow, founder and executive director of National Advocates for Pregnant Women.
