GRITtv: Compromise On Women's Backs Again

GRITtv: Compromise On Women's Backs Again

The passage of the Stupak-Pitts amendment came as a shock to many prochoice activists and writers, but it's not a secret that "pro-lifers" would like to roll back the right to abortion at any chance they get. Now that the amendment is in the House bill, progressives have to fight twice as hard to make sure it stays out of the final bill, and with some of the allies we've got, that's going to be an uphill slog--after all, Rep. Stupak is a Democrat. Jill Filipovic of the blog Feministe, Frances Kissling, contributor to RH Reality Check and Visiting Fellow at the Center for Bioethics, University of Pennsylvania, Diane Archer, Special Counsel & Director, Health Care Policy, Institute for America's Future, and Eesha Pandit of Raising Women's Voices for the Health Care We Need join us to talk about strategies for responding to Stupak, and what activists, feminists, and allies can do to make Democrats understand that women are not bargaining chips.
