What Kind of Choice Is That?
About this episode
The episode discusses California's healthcare funding priorities, focusing on abortion versus prenatal care, and includes insights on sex trafficking awareness.
California says it is all about choice, so why does every Medi-Cal dollar point poor women toward abortion? John Gerardi breaks down how the state fully covers abortion with zero out-of-pocket cost while OB care pays so poorly that Madera County lost its only maternity ward. Then, Assemblyman Joe Patterson's budget amendment to fund prenatal care at the same level as abortion, and why Sacramento let it die. Plus, Attorney General Rob Bonta's multimillion dollar lawsuit against abortion pill reversal, and why the case may be weaker than the press release announcing it. Finally, Stories from the Sidewalk: Linda Teliha shares what the team learned from Fresno anti-trafficking nonprofit Breaking the Chains about recognizing the signs of sex trafficking outside Planned Parenthood, and the story of a young mom who reached out to Lifehouse for support months after her baby was born.
