MSNBCW All In With Chris Hayes July 30, 2013

0 table, bibi netanyahu and mahmoud abbas, and secretary of state john kerry who worked hard to get this far. and of course to the president behind the big push, barack obama. blessed are the peacemakers. and that's "hardball" for now. thanks for being with us. "all in with chris hayes" starts right now. good evening from new york. i'm chris hayes. tonight on "all in" workers are walking out at major fast food chains in multiple states. there is a real movement to increase wages across the country, and those workers are here tonight. also, it turns out the new pope says gay priests are fine with him. and progressive catholics the world over are swooning. plus, pull up a seat and get your popcorn, rand paul versus chris christie has turned into a full-on battle royale, complete with congressional flunkies choosing sides and jumping into the ring. we begin tonight in north carolina where republican governor pat mccrory made history a few hours ago. mccrory just signed an antiabortion bill designed to severely restrict access to reproductive services in the state. he signed that bill despite making this campaign pledge at a 2012 gubernatorial debate. >> if you're elected governor, what further restrictions on abortion would you agree to sign? start with you, mr. mccrory. >> none. >> all right. >> ha. in case you forgot, the bill the governor just signed, despite making that crystal clear promise, less than a year ago, was originally attached to an anti-sharia law bill, and it was finally jammed through by being attached to a motorcycle safety bill. the governor is also poised to make good on his pledge to sign one of the most restrictive voting rights bills in the nation. a bill that he, himself, admits, as of friday, he had not read. >> i don't know enough -- i'm sorry, i haven't seen that part of the bill. >> that was governor being asked about a specific provision of that voter restriction bill that eliminates preregistration for 16-year-olds and 17-year-olds that he was apparently unfamiliar with. and keep in mind that question was asked less than five minutes after the governor said he would be signing the law. >> the second bill that i will sign is the voter i.d. law. i said it in 2008, and i said it again in 2012 that i think it makes common sense to show an i.d. when to vote. >> since the governor is apparently unfamiliar with the law he's pledged to sign, let me take a moment to educate him. not only will north carolina's voter i.d. bill end preregistration for 16-year-old and 17-year-olds who now can register to vote before they turn 18, it slashes the early voting period in half which has, as far as i can tell, absolutely nothing to do with i.d. or alleged fraud. eliminates same-day voter registration, requires voters to show a government-issued i.d., ends straight-ticket voting and also ends sunday voting. the rationale for which i cannot define. the bill the governor pledged to sign and the abortion bill the governor just did sign, those are two bills that give you a taste of the radical experiment going down in north carolina. right-wing assault that has produced moral mondays, the most significant concerted civil disobedience campaign anywhere in the country. this was the scene this afternoon as thousands of people marched to the state capitol for the 11th moral monday. the last of the legislative session. steadily week after week spurred by the all-out assault on voting rights, abortion rights and economic stability of north carolinians, people have gathered in the capitol to make their voices heard and in many cases to get arrested. more than 900 people have been arrested participating in moral monday protests since april. the republican governor and democrat/republican issue. but they are literally creating crimes against democracy and attacking our most fundamental value and people in this state are fed up and they're working like never before to organize. >> senator bryant, let any ask you about this about the abortion bill signed today by the governor. i'm somewhat amazed he thinks he can get away with such an obvious 180 on this. i mean, we can play that tape. i wonder if that tape is being played in the north carolina media. are you surprised by how shameless this appears to be? >> well, no, we're not surprised. when you look at the smokescreen-type legislation and the duplicity in their political strategy, i'm not surprised. just as they're saying the voting bill is about integrity, they're claiming that this abortion bill is about protecting women because their strategy to restrict our right to reproductive health care is constitutional. of course they can't admit that, so they're now claiming it's about protecting us. there's nothing in this bill that protects us. it restricts our access to insurance. it restricts -- provides one of the most broad, conscious provisions there is in the country. even a janitor or receptionist can refuse to provide services to a woman who is needing health care as a result of an abortion, even in an emergency. so this is not about protecting women. it's about restricting our access to reproductive health care and that, of course, is illegal and unconstitutional. so they have to couch it in other kinds of terms. >> reverend, so this has been -- there have been 13 moral mondays. this is 13th. the final this legislative session. i think i misspoke before about the number. the question is, they go into recess. what is next for this movement? >> moral monday goes home behind them. they run home, so we're going home. we're going to take moral mondays on the road. the first one is august the 5th in mountain mall monday. then coastal mall monday. on august 24th we're coming to and that's what they do. the session is over. they haven't created not one job. and so we're going to move forward to replace them and get people back in power who really believe in the future of north carolina and they'll take us forward. >> chris, the genius of this movement that reverend barber has led is the moral and -- the moral focus own the faith-based focus. it has brought together people who haven't even been paying attention to government. i've got e-mails from people who say, i've never paid attention to the legislature, and as a result of moral mondays, i'm listening to the debates on the internet, on the live stream and on the internet. i'm coming up here every week. this is a broader tent than we've ever had before. >> state legislatures, if you don't pay attention to them, they will get up to no good. state senator angela bryant. reverend barber from north carolina naacp. state representative larry hall. thank you, all. the reputation of the last pope was as a guy who was a bit judgey which probably is why this pope is making headlines around the world for the simple phrase, "who am i to judge?" that's next. iful hair.
