47 Years After Roe v Wade, Where Are We Now?

Published: Jan. 22, 2020, 7:58 p.m.

In today's edition of the Generation Progress "Millennial Takeover" from the Center for American Progress in D.C., GP's own Charlotte Hancock and Edwith Theogene are the co-hosts.

They discuss the state of abortion services in the United States, as it is the 47th anniversary of the landmark Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision.

The pair are joined by guests Jackie Blank and Jamille Fields Allsbrook, both experts on women's reproductive rights.

In our current political climate, access to women's healthcare services, including abortion services, are increasingly threatened.

The quartet evaluate the pressures befalling women's reproductive health services in this country, and how people are working to improve access to necessary medical treatments in this era of Neo-conservative party rule.
