one. allegations that shutt down a professional sports leek. hear from the journalist that uncovered the story and how years of turning a blind eye most likely enabled it. this is "american voices." beginning with the stand to protect reproductive rights. thousands marched to rally for abortion justice. there were hundreds of demonstrations. including in washington d.c. where organizers made the mission clear. to defend reproductive choice which gop state legislators continue to attack. >> we need the supreme court that will not overturn 50 years of precedent. >> everyone should be able to get the care that they need in their own community. >> abortion is health care. basic health care. essential health care. health care that cannot wait. >> hundreds today in austin, texas, ground zero of america's current abortion battle after texas banned boergs after six weeks. that law in effect for a month and already the dallas morning news is showing the impact revealing texans crossing state leans forced to travel hundreds of miles to seek care. which is a constitutional right since the supreme court's decision in 1973. here's the director of a clinic in oklahoma describes what he's seen since texas passed the law. >> the only people to see right now are the people who are able to make it out of texas. the people who can find a reliable ride, can get the child care for their current children, takes the time off of work. i know that many patients have told us that they or partners lost jobs trying to request this time off of work and it is absolutely an undue burden. >> this week in washington we also heard the personal stories and struggles of three members of congress facing decisions to end a pregnancy. in texas the fate of that law is in the hand of a federal judge. according to "the washington post" the judge friday questioned the portion of the law that empowers citizens to enforce the ban calling it unusual. a reminder of where a majority of americans stand. 54% believe abortion should be legal always or most of the time according to new polling by nbc news. joining us now to discuss cecile richard, former president of planned parenthood and melissa murray and the faith-based outreach coordinator of texas freedom network. hundreds of rallies today and the role of activism highlighted in this fight. how do democrats channel this energy as they inch closer to next year's midterms? >> what we saw today and i'm in austin where there were thousands of people marching, rallying together and one of the most diverse rallies i have ever seen in this state and it was interesting because there was almost all the conversation, the speakers talked about the fact that we have to register to vote and people have to get out and elect new members of the state legislature and new governor. it was clear that what happened in texas is extreme, unconstitutional cruel abortion ban did not happen because the people rose up and demanded it but the governor and other republicans put the political agenda and their own personal politics ahead of the health and well being of folks in the state and i believe this has struck a cord now among folks and they understand that the only way to change it long term is we have to build political power in the state of texas and elect people that respect the ability of people to make the decisions about their pregnancies. >> i want to bring up the map showing how far women in texas have to travel. texans forced to drive out of state. what have you heard this past month in texas? >> one of the most heart breaking stories is a 16-year-old girl who september me a text a little after midnight on september 1 and said how will i figure out how to get a bus to oklahoma when it took me two days to get a bus to ft. worth and she lived in dallas. that's the -- that's real. the other real heart breaking story is of a woman who started her abortion process on the day before the ban went into place and went into the clinic the next day for the second part and it had failed. this is heart breaking. we are hearing these kind of stories on the front lines from clinic staff. >> these are the front line stories and it's all going to run up to what happens at the supreme court as it begins the new term next week. we will be watching the case out of mississippi. harry lipman reports the most consequential case this term requires the court to review a mississippi abortion statute that forbids nearly all procedures after 15 weeks. the courts reafloral that the constitution protects a decision to terminate a pregnancy about 20 weeks under the current science. what is this case going to reveal about the new conservative super majority supreme court? >> we already have the first glimmers of a conservative super majority would mean with the voting rights cases and to see seal's point we don't get the state legislatures without laws that redistrict and redistrict in favor of republican legislatures and that suppress the votes of those who would object to policies like this. we think of voting rights and abortion rights but they're intertwined and cannot think about them apart. this is about political power and what we'll see this term at the supreme court in dobbs i think is really consequential not just because this is the first abortion case the 6-3 conservative super majority tacks up but the mississippi law which bans abortion at 15 weeks now looks reasonable next to this texas law that's unconstitutional and bans abortion at six weeks so we are getting a move to something that's unreasonable and looks reasonable because we see ever more restrictive laws and extreme laws passed by the extreme legislatures. >> this is your life's work. all on the line right now and i think there are people that care but who might not follow them as closely as you do saying how did we get here and end up in the year 2021 having this conversation about roe? >> i think it's a really important point. probably the most important one and it happened because the republican party has now essentially decided that they're going to cater to the most extreme part of this country to make abortion completely illegal in all cases which is essentially what happened in texas. we just saw in the united states congress the passage in the house of the women's health protection act which simply does nothing more than say abortion should be safe and legal and available to all people in this country and not a single republican member of congress voted for it so i think what's happened is seeing now that the republican party is no longer the party of small government, of staying out of my bedroom but wants to make this country go back to before roe and we all know and hearing from doctors now who lived during that era before roe young, healthy women dying in emergency rooms across this country and may make abortion illegal in trks but that doesn't mean there won't be abortion in texas but it will be unlegal and unsafe and we are not going back to those days. >> this week we heard from three members of congress about their own abortions. take a listen. >> i'm compelled to speak out because of the real risks of the clock being turned back to the days before roe versus wade, to the days when i was a teenager and had a back alley abortion in mexico. >> to all the black women and girls who have had abortions and will have abortions we have nothing to be ashamed of. we live in a society that failed to legislate love and justice for us so we deserve better. we demand worthy. >> for me terminating the pregnancy was not an easy choice. the most difficult in my life but it was my choice and that is what must be preserved for every pregnant person. >> reverend why do those stories matter? >> those stories much like my own as a woman with two abortions, those stories matter because they represent not just the person saying it but many women whose stories are you like theirs and i have to say that there is without a doubt that those stories won't go away. they'll just get stranger, more painful and almost deadly. >> a recent poll shows public approval of the supreme court now at just 40%. a new low in recent weeks you have had defending. what do you make of this public positioning to defend the court in this moment as faith and trust is waning? >> i think they have no other choice. the court is unlike congress or the executive. it lacks the power of the purse and the sword. all it has to make us obey the dictates is legitimacy and seriously hobbled since september 1 when the court allowed a law that flagrantly defies existing precedent cushing constitutional rights for people in texas and why we have had the supreme court justices out on this road show telling us that they're not partisan hacks and the shadow docket is merely a place to resolve emergency issues. but americans know what they see in texas and i think this gallup poll which is the lowest rates of the support saying that it is battered and hobbled and has to turn course at some point. >> as always thank you so much for reminding us what is on the line here. next, where talks stand and what may have to go for democrats to pass deals on infrastructure and spending. we'll ask new mexico congresswoman stance bury. the vaccine mandate at new york city schools has passed the supreme court. what could it mean for mandates elsewhere? first richard with the other big stories this hour at msnbc. richard? >> a body found today is believed to be that of college student mia mercano. the 19-year-old last seen last friday. the prime suspect is believed to have committed suicide this week. new service changes may cause delay starting this weekend in mail delivery. u.s.p.s. says the changes will increase consistency and efficiency. and hawaii's kilauea volcano is erupting for the first time since 2018. this time no homes are in danger for now. hawaii's volcano joins another eruption. la palma with volcanic activity for two weeks. more "american voices" right after this break. reak got a couple of bogeys on your six, limu. they need customized car insurance from liberty mutual so they only pay for what they need. what do you say we see what this bird can do?

>> yeah. thank you so much for having me on tonight. it is a real pleasure to be here. this last week we made real progress. i know at the national level and the media it is debated how it all proceeded but i feel confident that we're going to get these two packages across the finish line because as the president told us when he visited our caucus yesterday this is what he campaigned on. this is what we campaigned on. and this is what i personally campaigned on as the newest member of congress who ran in a special election in june. this is about passing infrastructure and creating jobs and about passing the most transformational package since the new deal. universal pre-k. expanding the health care system and taking climate action now. and i know that the president and our caucus and all of us across the ideological spectrum are dedicated to get both packages done. >> i think that we often do a disservice when we talk about the $3.5 trillion price tag without being clear that that number is not arbitrary. it has been arrived at as the necessary number to get programs funded and accomplished. we have been told it is likely that that will not be the final number. it will be lower. i wonder if you agree with that by i also wonder if you could articulate for us what could potentially be lost in the process if that number comes down. >> we're not focused as much on the number. i say we meaning the vast majority of the caucus. we are focused on delivering impact for the american people and the planet so what is most important whatever the final number and package is, that we deliver on expanding health care, universal pre-k and child, providing for free community college, that we are delivering on real climate change action now. in order to do that ultimately if we have to address these issues through a shorter time frame, be more strategic in shaping the final package we'll do whatever it takes but the people demand we pass both packages and that's what we work towards is the impact that real people will feel and as a congresswoman from new mexico, new mexico is one of the poorest states in the country. we have among the highest childhood poverty rates, unemployment rates and this bill will be transformational for our people and millions and millions of people and especially children across the country. so we have to get this done and get it across the finish line. >> you have been a propoe innocent of focusing on children and families. if you tinker with the legislation what could be at stake for the children, for their caretakers, for people who manage elder care? what is it in that bill that you are worried won't be preserved? >> as everyone knows we just authorized with the american rescue plan one of the largest investments in the families in the history with the child tax credit and one of the things at stake in the negotiations is making that program permanent which is already helped to lift millions of children because it's putting real money into the pockets of our families, helping families put roofs over the head and afford groceries, addressing the education needs and talking about an entire generation and generations to come to be impacted by these bills. ensuring that children all across the country with access child care and pre-k, that our families have paid sick leave, an expansion of medicaid in states where they have not adopted expansion and we expand medicare for our elders so that they can access hearing aids and dental and things like that through the medicare program so this is all about the health and the well being for communities and i want to bring it back to future generations which is all about climate change. we know from the science that we are facing a precipice on the planet and that if we don't take action now and serious climate action to reduce emissions that we are going to have impacts for generations to come and this is the chance and the opportunity. and this is the package through which we'll do it. >> thank you. next, vaccines and the classrooming. california issues a first of its kind mandate with a big catch joo the pandemic's toll own mental health and americans bearing the brunt. y to design 3-d virtual tours that are so realistic it actually feels like you're there. but that's all thanks to ted, a man who possesses an innate understanding of dimension. uh... ted...

(combative yelling) therabreath, it's a better mouthwash. at walmart, target and other fine stores. bottom line, vaccination requirements work. driven by the president's requirement vaccination rates at businesses, universities and colleges and other institutions across the country will continue to increase. >> that was the counselor to the president and coordinator of the white house's covid response team as unvaccinated federal workers face termination starting next month. new york city thousands of public school employees have until monday to get the first doses as a supreme court justice declined the block the city's vaccination requirement. california just issued the first state vaccination mandate for public school students once the vaccine are approved by the fda for use in children. america reaches 700,000 lives lost to covid surpassing the death from spanish flu. while that is hard to fathom there's bound to be another pandemic. question -- are we ready? atlantic staff writer eddie young says we may be in danger. medical bullets lose their power when deployed in a society. thank you so much for being with us. i love this context that you give which is that you write that biden's american rescue plan is secretly a pandemic preparedness bill. tell me how. >> pandemic preparedness isn't just about bio medical counter measures like vaccines or drugs. it is also about ensures that society is less susceptible and that means things like widespread health care, paid sick leave, making sure that everyone, especially the most vulnerable among us, can take care of themselves in the middle of a crisis. and for that reason many measures that the congresswoman talked about, paid sick leave, health care, these are pandemic preparedness. these are crucial and as crucial in my mind as getting vaccines and drugs at the ready. >> i interviewed health and human services secretary yesterday. here's what he told me about president biden's rollout of booster shots. >> when he said we're ready to do the boost we just have to wait for the science to catch up to us what he's saying is simply when the science says to launch we'll be ready. when the science says launch and people are -- i'm not ready to launch. president biden's not going to be a guy twiddling the thumbs why when the scientists say launch he's going to launch. >> i wonder if you believe that this was just a communications issue. if the lessons learned about how to address the communication issues moving forward and looking past this moment assuming we get to the future and the situation like this, what are the lessons to learn about how to set expectations from the beginning? >> i agree. the communications have been a severe problem not just with the booster rollout but the pandemic and i think that this tricky issue of the booster rollout demonstrates that we gravitate to these fruits of bio medicine to save us but america produced vaccines faster than anyone had dared hoped for and plateaued 38th in the world in vaccination rates. this death rate from covid per capita higher after all adults eligible for vaccines than many other countries had before vaccines were available and that should alarm us, shake us to the core and tell us that yes these things are miraculous and make a difference but in a society where millions of people cannot access health care, where so many people live on the edge and don't trust the government to provide for them then of course you might have vaccines but not vaccinations which is what actually matters. that's the piece that america needs to focus on for the next pandemic. >> this question of access. you have been trying to predict the end of the pandemic since march 2020. your sense of where we are in that tra verdict ri? >> i think the pandemic ends with the virus among us with immunity with vaccination or having some immunity because of encountering it but a tricky ride and i emphasize that for each individual getting vaccinated is the single best thing you can do to protect yourself but for a society america cannot rely on vaccinations alone. it has to think about testing, masks, all of it. we need to ensure that the entire country is shored up and ready and those measures, multi-layered defenses are going to help us the next time around, too. >> i appreciate your time. next women of color bearing the brunt of the pandemic. why?

we do not have cam. i'll start with you, dr. morris. part of the reason that this profile of simone biles is so interesting to me is what we see about biles, the way the culture and the society treats a black woman or black girl who is at the top of the game can tell us so much about the way that society treats all black women and all black girls. >> yes. thank you for that. the bodies of black women and girls are treated as the public domain to be used and discarded. it's an extension of a deeply held often sub conscious belief that the labor of black women and girls should be available to everyone and an extension of the anti-blackness we see affecting black women and girls and other communities of color. i'm the president and ceo of grant makers of girls of color and in a community with 180 organizations and 36 states, washington d.c., guam and puerto rico and what we see is that organizations are reporting an increase in care giving responsibilities, in exposure to violence in association with the pandemic, and that has continued. >> i want to hear from you. this was a profile that was written with great care, with great tenderness. what surprised you most about profiling biles? >> just how much her story was emblematic of the stories of women of color, especially the experience that black women have had in the pandemic. so much of the pandemic lasting effect is psychological. myself personally i can count on two hands the close friends and family i know who have caught it. i lost an uncle, my stepfather to covid. trying to manage the imact is enough but having higher rates you can imagine that this trauma is widespread and tens of thousands of black women carry this trauma sigh leaptly. even though the story is specific to the abuse she faced it was also a reality check around the way of carrying trauma and expected to win and to be successful even while few do a lot to protect us and to hear us. >> you said they're expected to win and be successful and in some ways winning, being exceptional, actually complicates things. right? because then people are less likely to see them as someone who might need support, as someone that might need checking in. in some ways that excellence becomes its own vulnerability. >> sure, yeah. i write about this in the story this notion that black women are treated like mules. this is obviously a metaphor. right? we aren't actually mules. we know that. but there is the world that we live in execs us to live up to the standards that other people don't have to live up to, expects us to carry the burden of protecting the community and ourselves and same time showing up expertly perfectly. over the last couple of years black women fighting about the ways that we are asked to contort ourselves, our hair or the way we speak and the examples that we are expected to perform in a society that does nothing to conform to our expectation but doing it without complaining is something that's killing us for so long and what biles did for us is set an example that being great is good but being well is better. and if black women have to put down the mantle of being great so that we can check in on our own health and take care of our community is time is now and we could feel okay to do that. >> the thread to pull through the amazing profile to the work you do, i want to go back to the "the new york times" report. black girls on the front lines of racial justice movements. essential workers and primary care givers. there is no other group all three things at once. you take that reality. i think the one choice there. you can question whether or not it is a choice to lead some social justice movements. to a lot of them that didn't feel like a choice but a necessity of the moment. what then do schools, do institutions, do the communities need to be doing to step up and support them this when they try to play all three roles at once? >> thank you for that. a long walk home released a study showing that 80% of young people who are involved in their program and survey were worried about their education, that black girls are dealing with financial hardships anden crease in taking care of a sibling or an adult in addition to managing the center of multiple pandemics or epidemics thinking about racism and the presence of that in addition to the physical health crisis of covid-19, schools need to be responsive to mental health. there's no way around us thinking about critically building systems that center our capacity to build out the institutions as locations for healing. i have long said that schools need to be locations for healing to be locations for learning. there's a necessity to center the whole well being to open up to be thinkers in these moments and not just of crisis but of well being. >> you know i needed more time than i had for this. read cam's profile in the cut. any of dr. morris' book. next to haiti. it is new reporting from jacob soboroff. you do not want to miss. well that leaves 2 out of 3 people who don't. i don't know anybody who's had it. your uncle had shingles. you mean that nasty red rash?

it's an easy question to ask yourself and one that doesn't have a simple answer. it's why the biden administration was underground here in haiti this week. juan gonzalez from the nsc talking to local leaders about a way forward. secretary mayorkas and his counter part, the ambassador to haiti at the embassy of washington say they want to treat people with dignity and respect from this country. and i think the people being deported to this country, excelled to this country every single day on multiple flights would question every day whether or not that's happening. that's all for now from this hospital here on the outskirts of porto prince. >> thank you, jacob. >> next, allegations against a coach have led to a weekend shutdown of a professional sports league. the journalist who uncovered it all will join us. and at the top of the hour senator joe manchin's former communications director joins ayman to discuss passing the biden's agenda. that is next. da that is next peerless design, cutting-edge tech, and a world-class interior. the exhilarating mercedes-benz glc. extraordinary runs in the family. most bladder leak pads were similar. until always discreet invented a pad that protects differently. with two rapiddry layers. for strong protection, that's always discreet. question your protection. try always discreet. age-related macular degeneration may lead to severe vision loss, so the national eye institute did 20 years of clinical studies on a formula found in preservision. if it were my vision, i'd ask my doctor about preservision. it's the most studied eye vitamin brand. if it were my vision, i'd look into preservision preservision areds 2 contains the exact nutrient formula recommended by the nei to help reduce the risk of moderate to advanced amd progression. i have amd, it is my vision, so my plan includes preservision. - [narrator] this is steve. he used to have gum problems. now, he uses therabreath healthy gums oral rinse with clinically-proven ingredients and his gum problems have vanished.

right, this story goes back a decade, right? so it's not just there are patterns of behavior but he was able to move from team to team but really some of the patterns and it's not just two players that spoke about this. i spoke to over a dozen players from every team he's coached on from within professional womens soccer. but a toxic culture with verbal abuse focused on personal relationships, a focus on weight, all of this lowering of boundaries of drinking out with the team. and then on top of that this pattern of sexual coercion where he sent a photo to both players a few years apart. so there really are patterns from team to team as he was able to move throughout the game. >> i want to hone in on this point you made in your piece which is that for most of the last two decades, quote, one of women's soccer governing mores has been a willingness to stay silent as. as the sport fails, tried again to gain traction in the united states any controversy was viewed as a threat to the sport's existence. and quote, it was more than hiding the truth, it was putting on a happy face while doing that. talk about the pressure these players were under to stay silent for the benefit of the sport? >> absolutely. this pressure, even that paragraph it's such a summary. in the professional league there is the sense that there have been two leagues before this one that have failed. so if you want this league to succeed there's not only your own safety, your own career safety but your teammates' careers, the entire leagues careers resting on your shoulders that if you raise your voice this entire thing could come crumbling down. so that breeds this silence across the sport, and we're only now starting to break free of it in a much, much more significant way. >> can you give us a sense of what real oversight would look like here? >> i think that there's a number of things to be done. i think there are actually now a number of investigates in play from u.s. soccer fifa which is the international governing body. one of the big key parts of this reporting is that when a coach is released due to behavior we're not finding out about that and he's able to be hired somewhere else or she's able to be hired somewhere else. so part of that is having processes in place not just an anti-harassment policy but something that will actually help keep the league itself in check to ensure that the players are safe and free from harm. >> thank you for sharing your reporting with us and thank you so much for your time. that is it for this saturday. thank you for being with us. i'm elisa menendez. i'm going to see you back here tomorrow 6:00 p.m. eastern for more american voices. but for now i hand it over to ayman. thank you so much for that greatly appreciated excellent show as always. welcome to ayman. no vote on the infrastructure bill at least not yet. it is a big win for progressives, but the real prize actually is reaching a deal on reconciliation. can they actually reach one? congresswoman debby dingell is here. and activists march in cities all across america today in support of abortion rights. will roe vs. wade still be standing at the end of this term? plus, senator marco rubio do as i say not as i do. he's actually introducing a bill called mind your own business act, believe it or not. so why doesn't he take his own advice for a change? i'm ayman mohyeldin. let's get started. all right, so it's been a fast moving week and a dynamic one on capitol hill. and after days of tough negotiations there are still no compromise between progressives and right-wing democrats on the president's build back better spending plan. and a promised vote on the bipartisan infrastructure bill that house speaker nancy pelosi said would happen this week did not. no
