It was two years ago today that the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Rose vs. Wade. On today’s episode of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Tia Micthell and Greg Bluestein explain how that decision changed the landscape of abortion access here in Georgia. State Senators Elena Parent, D-Atlanta, and Ed Setzler, R-Acworth, as well as the AJC’s Maya T. Prabhu join today’s podcast. 

Plus, both former President Trump and President Biden have Georgia on their mind ahead of their first debate in four years. Hear how each campaign is turning up the heat here before their Thursday night showdown in Atlanta.
