many states will. at least half a dozen already are, as of yesterday. now the rule has been overturned, 26 states are certainly to ban abortion in the coming days and months according to the institute. it advocates for reproductive rights. they have so-called trigger bans on the books. they are laws designed to automatically ban abortion if roe were to be overturned. officials and seven of those states, missouri, south dakota, louisiana, kentucky, oklahoma, utah, and arkansas, have already activated these bands. chief justice john roberts was the only conservative justice that disagreed with the court s decision. he disagreed. he ruled in favor of upholding mississippi s 50-week abortion ban. roberts did not vote to overturn roe entirely. however, all three justices appointed by the now twice impeached president now voted to overturn. roe nancy pelosi singled him out in her remarks yesterday. take a listen. how about those justices coming before the senators and saying that
community? with the overturning of roe v. wade, north dakota passed a trigger band in 2007 which warrants the attorney general that certifies it to have requirements met. abortion will become legal within a 20 state days. it will disproportionately affect the young people, rural people, black, indigenous, people of color, it is devastating. we shared a picture view calling her husband. you express how you feel. what did he say to you? the radical thing is he called me. i had to pick up the phone and make an appointment with a patient. i put her on hold and he called me to say that we planned for this. we have a solution. we are going to make it through
what is happening on the ground. you have protesters on both sides of this issue. they are essentially squaring off. the facility opened in just a few moments ago and folks who oppose abortion rights, they are trying to block the entrance of this facility. we have volunteers who are trying to shield some of the women who are going in and out of the facility today. yesterday, organizers at this clinic held a press conference saying that, because of the trigger law that is in place in the state of mississippi, the volume of calls has gone up significantly. they will remain open over the next ten days. once again, this is a trigger law state in mississippi. essentially what this means that there is a ten-day window where the attorney general will have to certify a decision that came down from the supreme court. based on the tweet from the attorney general yesterday, all sign seem to suggest that this will be official in a matter of days. once that is official, this clinic will ultimately
closed. women will have to travel to other states to gain access to abortions legally and safely. some of these estates being illinois. we bring up mexico because a clinic that has been working behind the scenes has opened another clinic in the state where they can help women gain access legally and safely. kathy park, thank you for your analysis. joining me now is nancy president and ceo at the center for reproductive rights, the organization that represented the jackson women s health organization at the supreme court. nancy, you were saying that this was going to happen. it happened yesterday. were you surprised at the expediency or did you expected to be cyclical? we have been saying, all along, unfortunately, had the consequences to overturn roe v. wade would be swift and devastating. we are seeing this this morning as clinics across the nation are not able to open their
