health care. and we shouldn t be on the wrong side 80% of americans on gun legislation. we shouldn t be on the wrong side of two-thirds of the country when it comes to abortion. these are not close calls. these these should be easy calls for republicans. even to hide what they really believe just from political expedience, they re not doing that. and that tells you the appear has really lost its way in a pretty fundamental way and could pay a huge price in november coughing up a huge share. you look at what s going on in the papers, unfortunately, tragic shootings, grocery store smootings, 18-year-olds with mental problems being able to walk into a gun shop and buy a weapon of war and go shoot up a school while police and other law enforcement officers stay outside scared to go in. and maybe you have one or two republicans i think yesterday voting against
child. to be clear about this, waivers the recall occurred i think on february 17th. on february 18th we sent out a letter to 86 wic agencies that basically operate this program and we began to receive those waiver requests and those were processed. so, within a matter of a couple weeks, we had roughly 66 of the 87 wic state agents requesting and being granted waivers. so, those waivers went into effect immediately in early march and have been in effect for some time. in addition, we also worked with abbott to make sure that if there was additional costs associated with a transition to a different brand, that abbott would essentially pick up the cost. we ask them to extend that effort through the summer. so, there s been a lot of activity taking place. and in fact work was done on waivers immediately. so, in terms of abbott in particular, and i appreciate your explanation on that and the idea of the expedience of dealing with the waiver issue.

kavanaugh s confirmation hearing, that when a nominee is talking about stare decisis in a confirmation hearing, we can just ignore that. because here is someone who just made a very strong statement about stare decisis in his confirmation hearing, and he s one of the five who is overturning roe v. wade. that s right, i think what we ve been seeing is a matter of political expedience, to simply get through the process. we ve seen senator is not really pressed, i have senator should in this regard. we ve seen congress fail to pass women s health protection act, but hopefully that s gonna be speech acts. here i think you speak to something absolutely accurately, which is that we ve seen people obfuscate. judges, who were looking to be appointed on the supreme court, obfuscate or flip around these issues, and don t take them seriously. i do want to point out something injustice alito s draft opinion here, where he talks about this being egregious. and that it s a decision that has damagi
0 again, it has been a remarkable hour. this is groundbreaking reporting from politico.com. josh goldstein, alexander ward. they have obtained i can t even, i still caught sounds crazy to hear the words coming from my mouth. they ve obtained a graph maturity opinion from the supreme court. this is not a ruling that has been issued, but it is been drafted by conservative justice samuel alito which overrules roe v. wade and planned parenthood versus casey, full stop and completely. and with an exclamation point. effectively clearing the way for republican controlled states and any future republican controlled congress at white house to flat out and completely ban abortion in this country, making it illegal without constraint. we re fundamentally changes as the country, it will fundamentally change the relationship between women and the government. it will fundamentally change the future of every girl in the country, for all our daughters and granddaughters, and women that come after
