The importance of women’s rights this election year
Jun 07, 2024•55 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
Senate Republicans this week voted down a Democratic measure
designed to protect women’s access to contraception. Now, Democrats plan to
call for a vote to protect the right to in vitro fertilization. On today’s
episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast,
hosts Bill Nigut and Greg Bluestein are joined by former Democratic state
Senator Jen Jordan to discuss the role she believes women’s reproductive rights
will play in the 2024 elections.
Bill and Greg later examine polls taken after Donald Trump’s
criminal conviction in the Manhattan hush money trial to determine whether the
trial’s outcome has changed the shape of the race between President Biden and
former President Trump.
And as we do every Friday, hear answers to your questions
from the Politically Georgia listener mailbag and give their picks for who’s up
and who’s down this week.
