that that right would be taken away from us. more than 34000000 women of reproductive age live in states where abortions are currently banned. that's forest many to travel more than 2000 miles. to reach this clinic to pack up and drive across the country because you know, no one will see you, especially in a place like texas, where it's like 18 hours to get out of the state or more. stacy ballantine moved away from indiana after the state legislature passed an abortion band. she used to work for an abortion clinic there and would have wrist at jail time if she'd stayed . now she works at whole women's health in virginia. i mean, it's crazy. there's no reason that we can't help people, regardless of where we live in the midwest. illinois is among the few states where abortions remain protected. these women with the chicago abortion fund work to help

women from abortion ban states, travel to illinois for the procedure. we provide logistical of financial and emotional support. so helping a firm to folks that the on the difficulty for which right now it is to access abortion is not a reflection of the morality of their decision. i can also follow up with you via text message. despite these efforts, researchers estimate there were 10000 few were illegal abortions in the u. s. in the 1st 2 months after roe v wade fell anti abortion act of his say, that's a significant victory and have vowed to pass more abortion restrictions. the battle over abortions is playing out now in state legislatures and courtrooms affecting one of the most intimate decisions of a person's life. heidi joe castle al jazeera, charlottesville, virginia. the white house says that the u. s. congress will come together and work to avoid a debt default. that's up to the country hit it's $31.00 trillion dollar borrowing,

deal, boring, limit rather on thursday. that a fears that a political showdown would unsettled markets and hit growth. allen fisher reports from washington. the treasury department warned weeks ago that there was going to be the possibility they would have to take extraordinary measures if the country run up against this debt limit. and that's exactly what's happened in the last couple of hours. us treasury secretary, janet yellen has written to kevin mccarthy, the leader of the house, and also senior figures on capitol hill saying that she's going to start those extraordinary measures. so what is she doing not being in to certain government retirement funds for the time being. she's also looking at perhaps realizing some investments yes, government has made and she's also seeing that as we move through this process, she's gonna have to start moving money around us departments as well. that is going to put pressure on those in the white house and also those up there on capitol hill . the question will be, what can they do to avoid the u. s. defaulting on its debt that kevin mccarthy,

when he was elected as speaker of the house, managed to do so by getting some votes from republicans who said that they wanted to see spending cuts when the debt limit came up. now, joe biden, and the white house said that simply not going to happen, that this bill must be passed clean and done. so just like they've done for republican and democratic presidents in the past. now, if there is a problem, this could cause a real difficulty in the u. s. economy and by extension, or with the world economy as well, back in 2011, when republicans and then president barack obama couldn't come to an agreement. the u. s. last, it's top credit rating for the 1st time ever, and there was a tremor through the world economy. that's something that joe biden is keen to avoid, particularly given that the economy seems to be recovering from high inflation and high gas prices. and also things are becoming slightly easier for many families and america. so it's going to be

a very interesting 2 or 3 months as the u. s. comes up against this debt limit, not on the verge of defaulting. no, but certainly the issue is there and it's got to be dealt with quick. the us aviation regulator says that last week's technical glitch, the ground of thousands of flights was caused by a contractor unintentionally deleting files. the agency says that of staff working to synchronize to databases when the computer system was disrupted. the u. s. judge has ordered plain manufacturer, boeing to face criminal charges in court. next week of a 2 crushes of it's 737 max jets. it comes off to some victims, families rejected a 2 and a half $1000000000.00 agreement negotiated by the firm to avoid prosecution. 346 people died and crushes in indonesia, in 2018 and in ethiopia in 2019 mike, hannah records from washington. well this going back, that was in january 2021. when a boeing reached to deal with the justice department in terms of which it paid

reforms as an assault on the countries welfare system because i'm a teacher and i think i'm going to be tied to and i'm $64.00. so i am not sure i'm labeled with children. when i'm 60 horse only provokes the more like we youngsters are not only here for ourselves, the bill unfair to years old. my parents are close to 60, and they would have to work 2 or 3 more years. the pension reform still needs to go through parliament, where micron has lost his absolute majority. so he's hoping to get it past with the support of conservatives. bernard smith, al jazeera paris, christiane. rinaldo has scored in his opening game in saudi arabia. but his efforts for the saudi, all star team weren't enough to stop long time. dr. lena massey at his probably sandra man sighed winning the exhibition game in riyadh snohomish was there. oh, fanny thinking fun international stadium retreated to real ball. said here in
