Shifting Strategies on Abortion Rights

Donald Trump's rhetoric on abortion care and reproductive rights has been all over the map this year, but his record — and that of the Republican party — is clear: he has bragged about ending the nationwide right to abortion access.

The Kamala Harris campaign is intent on driving that message home for voters, including in a new ad highlighting the story of Hadley Duvall, who, as a child, was raped by her step-father.

This episode: White House correspondent Deepa Shivaram, congressional correspondent Deirdre Walsh, and national political correspondent Sarah McCammon.
