Description

Roe vs. Wade is expected to be struck down this summer, which would mean abortion will no longer be a federally protected right. If that happens, about half the states will probably ban abortion altogether, or make getting one a lot more difficult.

And how other states want to copy that. Read the transcript here.Host: Gustavo ArellanoGuests: L.A.
