I interview award-winning podcaster and investigative journalist Jordan Gass-Poore about the Texas legislation banning abortions after 6 weeks, Senate Bill 8. She shares how her perspective as a native Texan who's interviewed activists on both sides of the aisle has shaped her understanding of the legislation's supporters and its broader historical context. We discuss her personal connections to the topic, most notably her mom's admission to having abortions of her own. The episode closes with speculation around what this means for Roe V Wade and reproductive rights as a whole.
