The Battle for Birth Control

Ordinary Equality

As we gear up for election season, it's safe to say that the abortion access is going to be top of mind. But what do refrains of "Vote! Vote for me!" mean, when it feels like no one is willing to go to bat for reproductive justice? 

This week, Jamia and Kate listen in as Ordinary Equality's executive producer, Jenny Kaplan chats with her connection on the Hill: her mom, Rep. Kathy Manning. Jenny and Rep. Manning pull back the curtain on what it actually takes to engineer a Congressional response to attacks on healthcare.
