About this episode

The episode discusses California's new abortion bills and features testimony from a young staffer about her experience with an unplanned pregnancy.

John Gerardi and Jonathan Keller break down California's newest wave of abortion bills, including AB 2540, which would require community college health centers to provide the abortion pill. They share the moving testimony of Leandra Wells, a young staffer with California Family Council, who details her experience facing an unplanned pregnancy in college. The episode also explores the politics behind AB 2531, the expansion of abortion grants for veterans, and concludes with a critical discussion of AB 1973's plan to let non-doctors perform second and third trimester abortions.
