The reports, we have seen them over and over again. filled with these pills, these candy coated pills and people are dying and it is this, this hits at the center of hollywood s core and that is why we are seeing this splattered all over the place. but every day, this is happening to kids across america, to families who are not celebrities and this is a tragedy that needs to be stopped at the border. we had 111,000 overdosed thousands. synthetic opioids like fentanyl and we really need a better treatment of course and we need narcan available and more and more places, schools, mobile clinics and high-risk areas and then of course, trying to control the flow at the border. it has to be done and people just have to watch out because you might be taking something and the odds are it could be
I don t know long-term effects of the drug. they are acting like this is about access and that worries me a lot. kayleigh, what do you think this is about? kayleigh: they put a potential, well grounded research and they .2 mayo clinics and say it is important that your doctor check closely to make sure the medicine is working and side effects and although using this medicine at the mayo clinic to prevent pregnancy, you should know using this while pregnant could harm the unborn baby. this could enable abusers and just perhaps a young male on campus who wants to get this. there were so many harmful things that when you go to college, you get a plan b vending machine but they get chased off by professor and told bringing violence to campus. cheryl, is there a political angle here and the midterm
They ve always taken great care of our people here, but anyone who comes to our state is going to have high level, the best quality abortion care, reproductive health care. and this law protects them from idaho trying to go after them for whatever they might do to those in our state. obviously we can t control what they do in idaho. but we re doing our very best. we also have now laws that will protect people who go into our clinics. believe it or not, there is still the possibility of obstruction at the clinic door. it seems like this is, you know, something from 50 years ago but, unfortunately, it s back. i m really proud of the new law that will soon be taking effect here in oregon. symone sanders townsend, can you talk about the political challenges and opportunities? well, mika, i think on the politics of this, look, for 50 years the republican party apparatus has been organizing to
Live both of those in one day. and for catherine and her children, as dismal and as dark as the events in that mall were, she refused to do anything but grow and be positive for herself and her family. because i don t want them to come out of this and hate or be angry about what happened. it would be easy to be angry. it would be very ez superintendent to be ang it would be very easy to be angry. i don t want them to see the bad part of it. i want them to come turn that bad situation into something positive. that s all for this edition of dateline. i m craig melvin. thank you for watching. it was a moment considered unimaginable in 21st century america. the u.s. supreme court eliminating the constitutional right to abortion, the bans were immediate, along with the horror stories of shuttered clinics and women denied medical care. i ll never forget a doctor
Idaho trying to go after them for whatever they might do to those in our state. obviously we can t control what they do in idaho. but we re doing our very best. we also have now laws that will protect people who go into our clinics. believe it or not, there is still the possibility of obstruction at the clinic door. it seems like this is, you know, something from 50 years ago but, unfortunately, it s back. i m really proud of the new law that will soon be taking effect here in oregon. simone sanders townsend, can you talk about the political challenges and opportunities? well, mika, i think on the politics of this, look, for 50 years the republican party apparatus has been organizing to overturn roe v. wade, something you heard from state legislative offices all the way up to the campaign trail for president. and when roe was overturned
But that s also hard cause there s no funding in south texas, so i can t really get anything. so the amount of money that i have is almost like obsolete compared to places like austin, where they can give out free iuds and stuff, but here, we can barely give out free condoms. the clinics can t even give em out to the patients for free, so there s like a really big disparity. tonight s event, the talking points will mostly be around like you need to vote, so that way the clinic can stay open. oh, it s beautiful. cunts is like a monthly drag show at this local venue downtown. okay, so if the show s gonna be here, that means everyone s gonna be around here. my friend, joe is a drag queen and he calls himself a dragstivist, because he mostly centers his drag around like doing nonprofit work for the lgbtq community. like he does a lot of hiv work.
Their communities and something we know to be true, generations of people know, we know now, you cannot ban abortion. you can only ban safe abortion. that s right. people are still going to seek care, and that s only going to get more and more dangerous. absolutely. donate to their local abortion fund so we can fly texans to new mexico and get the care that they need. and you re going to keep fighting? we re just going to keep opening clinics. every time they close down open another one. but we ve opened three in a year s time, and we re just determined that women are going to have access no matter what. amen. freedom is very hard to take away from people, vice president harris. it makes people focus. they re focused. yeah. how is the administration going to respond to this moment? right. well, on the mifepristone issue, for example, we are fighting in the courts. we re going to keep fighting, because we also know that the majority of folks who receive
Over half of our clinics were closed. laura here is a nurse that does sexual assault, and she can talk about her experience. - so when the senator decides to vote against - this was the first time in literally i think like 10 years people have come up in that number to lobby here. - thank you guys for stopping by. - safe travels. - our legislators are like shocked that people from the valley care and care enough to come to austin and complain to them. we have people who have never lobbied before, having just the experience to know that there are people out there that are willing to educate and train you, that there are people from all over the state who feel the same way you do, societal change doesn t happen in one day. and to like train people to start being able to change our policies here in the state is something that s really awesome. [dramatic music] - and for the folks inside the rotunda, who would rather us be silent, show me what democracy looks like.
- we, i will not concede that any of these clinics have to close. i m just, you know, they make a lot of money with these abortions. i wanted to clarify that, or at least get your comments on that part. - i do not doubt for a moment that there are some of those clinics who simply aren t going to have the financial capacities to become an ambulatory surgical center. but what i fear most is that in the areas of our state that are most impoverished, that those will be the most likely areas that will not have the resources, and where women who, again, layered upon the sonogram from last session, who now have to have a sonogram, a 24-hour waiting period, return, make sure the same doctor who did the sonogram is the person who performs her abortion, and if, for some reason that doctor can t be there the next day, she s gotta start the whole process over again.
