a 1973 ruling giving women the constitutional right to terminate that pregnancy. oh, the decision is through the wave of anger across the united states, where millions of women will now lose access to abortions, state laws, granting abortion are automatically taking effect today. jeopardizing the health of millions of women, some without exceptions. ah, hello, i'm sorry, i'm noisy in london, you're watching alger 0. so coming off on the program, a 2nd of quake hits afghanistan was thousands, are struggling with little food, water, or shelter. 2 days after the homes were destroyed. after weeks of bombardment, ukraine tells its forces to withdraw from the devastated city of savannah. done yet

. why 33000000 people are going hungry in a country which produces enough food to feed a 10th of the world's population. ah! hello and welcome to the program. we begin in the united states, when millions of women are expected to lose access to abortions after the supreme court struck down the ruling making it a constitutional right. ah, this was the scene among anti abortion demonstrators in washington when the decision came through. the conservative dominated court voted 6 to 3 in favor of overturning. rove us is wade ruling, which was passed almost 50 years ago. in 1973 republican members of congress are

hailing the ruling as a momentous victory. we are entering a new era of freedom of freedom for the unborn. and i am proud to have always been on the side of pro my pro life brothers and sisters who stand here with me to day and all across america. we always knew we would realize true freedom for all americans. the people of one of victory, the right to life has been vindicated. the voiceless will finally have a voice. this great nation canal live up to its core principle, that all are created equal, not born equal, created equal. the reaction to this principle decision by the court, it must be peaceful. and the d. o. j must step up to protect our justices their families, churches, and pro life pregnancy centers from unprovoked violence. oh, it's

a hugely emotive issue in the country. there were demonstrations on both sides of the abortion argument. outside the supreme court. i said the man massive disappointment for the pro abortion lobby when the ruling over tunney roe the wade was announced. that use echoed by senior members in the democratic party. such a contradiction. yesterday the say the states cannot make laws governing the constitutional right to bear arms. and today they're saying the exact reverse that the states can overturn a constitutional rights for 50 years. the constitutional right for want having the right to choose that policy is raging. but the harm

is endless. whereas president joe biden has condemned the supreme court ruling and explained how he will help women impacted by this decision. it's a realization of an extreme ideology and a tragic error by the supreme court. in my view, as the attorney general was made clear women must, we've rein free to travel safely to another state to seek care they need. my administration will defend that bed rock, right? any state or local official, high or low drives interfere with the woman's ex, exercise in her basic grade to travel. i will do everything in my power to fight that deeply on american attack. let's beat out our white house correspondent, kimberly how can she joins us from washington? what can the last president in federal government do to fight this what we had expected, the potentially the u. s. president would put in place executive orders to try and

increase women's options for accessing abortion. but it appears that the president has calculated that the best option is to put this on the ballot november in other words, to essentially make this an issue for voters in the up top coming congressional elections in november. essentially what this is in the president was very clear, he said ro is on the ballot. what he means is that this is going to be resolved with a legislative solution, the congressional elections. oh, the president is saying it is that if you want to overturn this, you need to elect to the u. s. congress. democratic party members who support in favor of for women to be able to have access to abortion. if you oppose this, then you need to elect republicans who favor that. this is something that a woman should not have access to. and so this is something that the president

believes that a large majority of americans are in favor of and that he will. and his party will gain seats as a result. and the reason that the president it sees this potentially is a political win in terms of the supreme court decision. a, in the long term is that he's not doing well at the polls right now. he's got low marks on the economy. inflation is very high and things we're not looking good for the president come these congressional elections in november and he might have. 7 lost some of these democratic seats, and congress republicans could have picks up some seats. now it may be just the opposite is as a result of the supreme court ruling. so the president is encouraging people to go to the polls. he says that a woman's health and life is at risk, and he's believing that voters need to make their voice heard. and in order to codify what has been the law of the land for the last 50 years, there needs to be

a legislative solution. in other words, make this law by electing members of his democratic party to the u. s. congress. and it has historically been a polarizing issue with very strong feelings on both sides of the debate. how much concern his are about how the next few days could pan out? well, so much concern we have heard from the u. s. president saying very clearly that there is no room for violence. there will be no tolerance for violence in pro, testing this decision. and we also heard this from merit garland, the us attorney general, who said that violence and threats are not protected by the 1st amendment. peaceful protesting is in other words, there is grave concern. given the fact that we've seen a number of indicators that there may be violence in the coming hours and days in recent days, we have had leaflets being distributed across the country indicating and calling

for a night of rage if row was overturned, looting burning, riding. so that is something that the federal government is concerned about already . we have seen the federal authorities on high alert. we've also heard that in the district of columbia or washington d. c. that the city has put their forces on high alert as well until tuesday. and you have to remember that justice cavanaugh, the supreme court justice, one of the conservative justices that was appointed by president trump already has experienced threats of violence just in the last week or so. outside his home, a man was arrested, a man in his twenties, who said he came from the u. s. state of indiana with the express intent to kill the justice before he was apprehended. so already we've had these threats against supreme court justices and threats of riding and looting. so we've had these

warnings now from the president as well as the attorney general that this will not be tolerated. was phil. this is a country and the city bracing and on high alert. thank you very much. kimberly how kit in washington is kimberly was explaining their husband nearly 50 years. since u. s. supreme court ruled on rosie wade, it was a landmark decision establishing that choosing to have an abortion is a right protected by the constitution. 7 out of the 9 judges voted in favor. they ruled features has the potential for life in the early stages of pregnancy, but is not a person, and therefore does not have constitutional rights of its own decades. laser restrictions on the procedure vary depending on state laws, but at least 13 states have what is known as triggered laws that will immediately ban or restrict abortion. if the supreme court overturns roe v wade as go live now to party call hinge has been monitoring the reactions are outside the us supreme

court. what's the scene their light now? well just wanna give you a sense, the entire block that makes up, the supreme court is basically filled with people. at the beginning of this day, the decision came down around 1010 local time. there were a handful, really a couple dozen protesters that were pro abortion rights. couple doesn't that were anti abortion rights. i can tell you, we haven't really seen any pro, uh, anti abortion rights activists in quite a while. the street is now flooded with people who are exceptionally angry, or they're angry at the court. they keep chanting against is the justices who many of them see as not really a supposed to be here than just to get put that in perspective. brock obama was president with anton scalia died and it was he had about a year left in his term of the republican leader of the senate, decided that he wouldn't give his domini a hearing. so that was decided by the next election were obviously donald trump became president. and then when ruth bader ginsburg died with just about

a month to the election, mcconnell switched his stance on that and was able to get a justice amy, but amy, boy, coney barret on the court. so that is what made this super majority. the conservative super majority, the other reason people are angry and it's not just the people here. it's members of congress is under oath. during their confirmation hearings, the 3 new justices said that they believed that roe v wade was settled law. just to give you a sense of how incredibly huge this decision is the case before them was could you ban abortion after 15 weeks they went ahead and just said roe v wade was decided wrong. we're throwing it out. supreme court doesn't usually do that. it's very rare that they don't listen to the court's own precedence. what have people saying now? they're saying they're angry. they want to see congressional action being taken. uh, they want to see people on the streets for days, weeks,

months to until the can until congress take something like this up. and i wanted to give some perspective dirty rab hand. she is with the national council of jewish women. and you came down here to day, but i want to ask 1st your gut reaction when you heard it. sure, thank you so much. i shock and it was expected, but a horror, anger, sadness, and it's just, we know it was coming, but i'm still quite shocking when it became real this morning. what's your fear? what's your fear about what's going to happen? well, we know exactly what's gonna happen upon teddy's decision. at least 13 states immediately banned abortion. it has already been difficult if not impossible for people to access abortion in this country. row has not been the reality for the majority of people seeking abortion care entities, decision made at that much harder for more people. and so we know we're seeing it

in states that have already banned abortion or severely restricted it other states that have greater access or feeling at their under dress folks who live there can't get the care they need because so many people are coming from out of town her bite ers, are working around the clock. the whole system is already so thought and fragile . we know that according to the studies about 60 percent of women who seek abortions are much parents are already there already. mothers. and we know studies have shown that those who couldn't get abortions from those children, they tend to end up in poverty. do you think that they'll be any sort of programs to help these women? because realistically low income women are not going to be able to revel cross country to get an abortion. well, i want to be clear that abortion impacts everybody. so it's not just women who have abortion, abortion impacts families, colleagues, friends, neighbors and everybody. i know somebody who has had an abortion,

in fact one and 4 people have had in abortion. so this is an issue that crosses all boundaries. it's an economic justice issue. it's a racial justice issue as a reproductive justice issue and you asked, right, we do know there is to study the turn away study that has shown adverse outcomes for the people who did not have access to abortion. they were denied abortion care and their children and how it follows them through their lives. abortion is health care and we know that access to this important and vital care allows people to live the lives that they want to lead to have autonomy over their body to make decisions when and if to parents, and when enough to have a family return. thank you so much for your perspective. i appreciate that the study she was mentioning actually was very interesting. it looked at about a 1000 women, some who were turned away from a clinic and some that were able to provide or get the abortion. and they followed

them over the long term. and one of the more striking aspects was not only the women who weren't allowed to get an abortion, many of them ended up in bankruptcy. many ended up the living below the poverty line. but the children, they already have a showed to have severe mental health issues and, and lower educational outcomes. so it is a very broad ranging issue that this decision has now made and it is going to be felt for years to come. will continue to follow the implications and fallout from the supreme court ruling today. for now, patty coin. thank you very much. and watching al jazeera lie from london still ahead on the program, the united nation is concludes that is right. he forces not palestinian fighters killed al jazeera janice. trina laughlin and now the protests are, is killed and dozens of injured as demonstrations in ecuador move into that 12th day. ah,
