Could the 14th Amendment Block Trump from the Presidency?
Legal analyst Kimberly Wehle on the 14th Amendment and whether it can be used to keep Donald Trump off the ballot.
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand visits the Georgia state capitol to protest a new restrictive abortion law.
On Wednesday, Alabama Governor Kay Ivey signed into law a near-total ban on abortion.
Though Alabama now boasts the most restrictive law in the country, the state is not alone in tightening the screws on abortion access. Last week Georgia banned abortions after six weeks. And Missouri lawmakers followed suit with a ban after eight weeks.
Abortion rights advocates plan to challenge these laws in court. Which is the point, according to the laws’ sponsors. The ultimate goal, they say, is to reach the Supreme Court and force a ruling on Roe, the 1973 decision that made abortion legal in the United States.
Diane examines what these new laws mean for the future of abortion access in the U.S.
