The state of reproductive rights in Georgia

Monday marks two years since Roe v. Wade was overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Patricia Murphy and Tia Mitchell are joined by Melita Easters, founding chair of the Georgia WIN List, to talk about the state of reproductive rights in Georgia. 

Then, South Carolina’s U.S. Rep. Jim Clyburn previews his visit to Georgia this weekend. He will campaign on behalf of fellow Congressman Sanford Bishop, D-Albany, and focus on outreach to Black voters. 

Patricia and Tia also answer your questions from the listener mailbag and give their pick of the week’s winners and losers during Who’s Up and Who’s Down.
