This election year, abortion rights are being vigorously challenged in the courts and in referendums across the US. That’s why Katha Pollitt’s new book, Pro: Reclaiming Abortion Rights, is making an active case for reproductive justice. Pollitt joins Democracy Now! with Amy Goodman and Narmeen Sheikh to explain that “having children when you want to have children is very important for women’s lives.”
