forward to the visit. making new memories as a family, the news continues check topper on cnn tonight starts now. >> thanks anderson >> thanks anderson, this is cnn tonight i'm jake temperate in washington. election day is just 12 days away, but many democratic officials seem to believe barring some major seismic event, control of the house of representatives is all booked on. democrats can feel the house seats slipping through their fingers, as some experts project republicans could pick up maybe even 30 seats, and they only need five to win back the majority. some in the democratic party are already performing

pre-autopsies. >> sometimes, people just want to not feel as if they are walking on eggshells, and they want some acknowledgment that life is messy. >> i am worried about the level of voter turnout among young people, working people, who will be voting democratic. i think again, with democrats have got to do is contrasts their economic plan with the republican. >> tonight, we look into the crystal ball to see what a republican that out of representatives might actually look like. the house gop sees these pending election results as a repudiation of where president biden and democrats are currently leading the country, and that is part of what is driving their legislative agenda. it's important to note that the party that runs the house typically engages in two types of legislation. one is built purely around messaging and firing of the

base. democrats, for instance, did that with sweeping gun reform measures, even though they need to build a past would not even get 50 votes in the senate, let alone 60. the other kind of legislation is actually legislating. last month, house republicans laid out their legislative priorities, calling it their commitment to america. so let's break it down and try to figure out what exactly republicans will try to do. a big focus obviously will be the economy. republicans are vowing to repeal the 80 billion dollars currently set aside, at least partly, for new irs agents in the building that democrats call the inflation reduction act. >> but on that very first aid that we are sworn in, you'll see that it all changes, because on our very first bill, we are going to re-build 87,000 irs agents. according to the washington post, republicans also want to extend trump's tax cuts, which are set to expire in 2025, another big agenda item is combatting crime, not just boosting funding to hire more

police but demanding transparency from prosecutors and district attorneys who are, and the views of house republicans too lenient when it comes to prosecutions or plea deals. republicans also want to reimpose trump era border restrictions to stem the flow of migrants coming from mexico. there's also what they call a parent bill of rights taking the page on the playbook of republican governor glenn duncan elected last year in virginia, a state that joe biden won by ten points, partially by appealing to parents frustrations with remote learning and masking in schools. >> we're going to go to work in order to protect parents rights and make sure that there is transparency, to make sure the parents are fully informed and that parents make these most important decisions in conjunction with their child, not a bureaucrat or politician. >> potentially, politically put in for parents, we'll see how it translates on the federal level, of course.

another big responsibility for congress, the legislative branch, is supposed to be the oversight of the white house or the executive branch. now we tend not to see much of the when the party control in congress also involves the white house. and from republican perspective, as congressman michael cloud of texas told politico, quote, it's not something where we are having to drum up, okay, what are we going to do? it's more of a limiting factor of we only have 50 weeks a year, unquote. so, what is at the top of republicans list for oversight? a border, and crime and according to the likely next chair of the house oversight committee, congressman james comer of kentucky, this -- >> the whole reason we are

investigating under biden's because we know that he is an actual security threat, and we fear that he has compromised joe biden. >> what else? in the hours after the news broke of the fbi search for classified documents in president trump's mar-a-lago resort, house minority leader kevin mccarthy tweeted, quote, when republicans take back the house, will conduct immediate oversight of this department, follow the facts and leave no stone unturned. attorney general garland, preserve documents and clear your counter, unquote. general garland will undoubtedly run into a familiar face in the halls of the capital, doctor anthony fauci, even post retirement, because republicans have pledged to investigate the origins of covid and the federal government's handling of the epidemic. >> unless doctor fauci decides to seek asylum in some foreign country, whose power ball jackpot is still 187 chickens and a goat and therefore, which won't enforce a subpoena from the united states congress,

then doctor fauci retirement or not is going to be spending a lot of time in front of a congressional committee and committees f republicans take back control. >> it, by powerball had 287 chickens and a turtle. anyway, dr. fauci said that is fine with him but -- -- >> i'd be happy to cooperate, so long as we make something that is a dignified oversight, which should be and not just bringing up ridiculous things and attacking my character. that's not oversight. >> nothing says dignified like the u.s. congress. >> in addition, the likely next chairman of the house foreign affairs committee, congressman michael mccaul of texas made it clear that he wants to

investigate the u.s. withdrawal from afghanistan. mccall sit in a statement to cnn this evening, quote, will also continue to demand answers to why the withdrawal from afghanistan was such a disaster. the american people deserve transparency from this administration, especially when it comes to national security, and we will work to deliver that to them, unquote. but investigating, that's not the only i word you should expect to hear a lot more of in 2023. another i word being thrown around by some republicans, mostly in the maga wind is impeachment. congresswoman marjorie taylor greene of georgia introduced articles of impeachment against president biden on his first full day in the white house for abuse of power, for hunters foreign dealings. yesterday, she offered this helpful advice to the president on how to prepare for gop house control. >> they should advise them to consider resigning because there is a lot coming for joe biden, not only joe biden but hunter biden and other people linked with them. >> i don't think president biden is on board with a, and as of now, it does not seem like republican leaders or fully on board with the idea of impeaching president biden. republican leader kevin mccarthy said this last month. >> we just went through four years of watching political impeachment.

will uphold the law, will not play politics with it, but will do whatever in the nature that the rules and facts take us to. >> last week, when asked by punchbowl news if anyone in the biden administration had had accidents that rose to the level of impeachment, mccarthy said, quote, i don't see it before me right now, unquote. but mccarthy is going to have to deal with this maga wing. i will get to that in a second. biden is not the only one that republicans are talking about impeaching, we should know. >> i think one of the very first priorities of the new republican congress should be to impeach alejandro mayorkas. i think laying out the facts before the american people in a trial early next year is incredibly important. >> that's republican senator ted cruz talking about homeland security secretary, alejandro

mayorkas. senior republican sources told cnn earlier this month that mayorkas has become their number one target for impeachment, given the crisis at the southern border and that it is a matter of when, not if the republican start the impeachment proceedings. which dana bash asked mayorkas about earlier this year. >> i am incredibly proud to work with 250,000 dedicated and talented personnel, and i look forward to continuing to do so. >> no concern about that? >> i am not. >> he was not concerned six months ago, i wonder if he feels differently now, less than two weeks out from the election. several democratic committee chairs became household names during the trump years, some other republican successors during the biden years could include republican congressman mike turner of ohio and the house intelligence committee, congressman mike rogers of alabama, poised to take over the house arms services committee and the likely new chairman of the house judiciary

committee, jim jordan of ohio. >> i don't know how you can ever convince me that president trump did not win this thing, based on all the things that you see. >> the election lies you just heard from jim jordan are significant because the likely next speaker, kevin mccarthy, will be quite different from the previous two republican speakers, when it comes to dealing with this far-right extreme in the house gop caucus. how speaker john boehner viewed them with disdain. >> listen, i am a conservative republican, right, so is liz cheney. we are just not crazy. people in the media want to talk about these people being on the right, they are in the crazy -- this is nothing to do with being conservative. >> how speaker paul ryan dealt with what was called the crazy caucus at arms length. >> if the conservative cause depends on the populist appeal of one personality or of second race imitations, then we are not going anywhere.

>> well, we'll see. this ring at the party, the maga caucus, will be bigger and stronger than ever in 2023. and kevin mccarthy will need their support to become and then stay the speaker. hence inviting marjorie taylor greene to sit right behind him, as he unveiled the commitment to america. green told the new york times magazine that if mccarthy does not give her a lot of power and leeway, then the republican base is, quote, going to be very unhappy about it. i think that is the best way to rita, and that's not in any way a threat of, i just think that is reality, unquote. democrats stripped the committee assignments from marjorie taylor greene and from another republican, who had espoused violent extreme views, congressman paul gosar, both of

whom also appeared, by the way, at a white supremacist convention. what will happen to them in 2023? >> they'll have committees, committee assignment they have now, other committee segments. >> this is no small issue. because how kevin mccarthy handles extremism in his ranks could impact the success of his speakership. at the end of the day, mccarthy is going to be walking a precarious tightrope. he will be challenged constantly to choose between delivering on a conservative agenda or supporting the wild lies and conspiracy theories of the moment that donald trump unleashed. now house republican say that they will recapture the house, and it will be because the country is rejecting the status quo on the economy and crime, immigration, education and more, but speaker mccarthy will also be pressured by trump and others to address issues that are not based in fact.

what will kevin mccarthy do? i often think about the time in march 2021 when cnn's own manu raju challenge mccarthy to explain his votes to disenfranchise the voters of pennsylvania and arizona on january six, after the plenty right based on the lies that incited that crowd. here is mccarthy's defense in part. >> if arizona and pennsylvania will be removed from the electoral college, president biden's number will be below two 70. >> donald trump said that the house -- >> i am not donald trump. you're asking me the question. i am answering your question. let me answer your question, since you asked me. so, you gave a promise that is not true. >> donald trump tried to overturn the results in congress, and you support that. >> well, now you're saying something is not true, so let me answer your question and show you how your premise is not true. >> if you listen closely, mccarthy is claiming that he did not actually vote to overturn the election, because he only supported during out

the votes of two states, and that alone would not have actually been enough to flip the election from biden to trump. this was mccarthy's attempt to appease the maga madness while also simultaneously being a responsible leader. and it's difficult to achieve, perhaps impossible, and it will be a task that will be far more difficult with the mighty powers of the speaker of the house instead of as leader of the minority. we hope the next speaker chooses why thusly. in a moment, an influential voice on the house gop will join us, congressman dan crenshaw from texas is hoping to become the chairman of the homeland security committee, if his party wins back control of congress. and he wins reelection in 12 days. first order of business, if achieved? we'll ask him next.

balance of power in congress should see a major shift if republicans in control of the agenda on the house floor. for insight into where a republican-led chamber could look like, let's bring in texas republican congressman, dan crenshaw, who joins us now. congressman, thank you so much for joining us. on day one, would be speaker mccarthy says republicans will repeal the 80 billion dollars that would fund 87,000 new irs agents. i know you support that, but you almost certainly will not have 60 votes in the senate to

support such a thing, so i guess one of the questions i have is, what do you prefer your party to prioritize should you take over the house legislation that ultimately can pass the senate and become law or legislation that is appealing to the base, because that will be a real pull and push? >> jake, like you said in your monologue, there are two tracks. when is the idealized version. this is if we were kings for a day, this is what the law would be. i think that plays an important role. you have to show people who yoa. that is largely through signed bills like the budget process. repealing funding for irs agents and budget, i think that is actually doable within the budget process itself. if i were to give you at least

two priorities that i would certainly like to focus on, and i think there is broad consensus, it's our energy sector and our border. overall, it's a team of security. look, its energy security, reliable energy that has a predictable price for the rest of the year. it's economic and financial security, so general lower taxes and less struggle tory regulations on the government that reduce investment. again, just the basics here. securing our freedoms, securing our parents right to go to school board meetings and purpose, or at least get a clear idea of what documents. and border security, of course. you have fentanyl coming across and droves, and it's killing almost 80,000 americans a year. i suggest -- that's a bipartisan issue, it's got to be.

that's a unifying issue. this is a common enemy that we are to focus on. every american should know the names of these guys who run these cartels that are poisoning our kids. it's the number one cause of death for young adults. >> one of the first orders of business, of course, for the next congress will be to raise the debt ceiling and to avoid a government shutdown. it's easy to be in the minority tempo in a way that will appeaser pleaser base, but if house republicans take over, you guys are in charge of keeping the government running. you guys will be in charge of keeping the government funded and to increase the debt ceiling. do you think that there will be enough republicans ready to govern? >> i think so. look, obviously, we got people who will vote no no matter what. look, we're well aware that. fact it is time to govern, and we do have to gather on votes. those dew points, refunding the government to avoid a government shutdown and the debt ceiling, well, those are both points to. -- they're difficult political

times. nobody likes them but they are necessary evils in a sense because it's the only time that you can actually negotiate ways to get our budget under control. we have to all agree on this, that a fiscal cliff is near, and it's difficult to predict when that will happen, but we have spent a lot of money on these last couple of years. getting a budget under control, getting our debt to gdp ratio under control, it's got to be a priority. >> one of the things that i look back on the last congress and i think that there are a lot of people in this country who look and say, we want people to work together. we want democrats and republicans to work together, so they were happy about the chip. they were happy about the infrastructure bill. they were happy about the bill that senator cornyn worked on after the tragedy in uvalde, because they won't compromise. you talk about the fentanyl crisis. a huge problem in this country. one at the areas where there is always true difference between

democrats and republicans is republicans want to focus on border security, and democrats want to focus on treatments and some other causes for dependency. i am wondering, is there a willingness, will there be a willingness, assuming you take over the republicans take over, and you are running for chairman of the homeland security committee, if you take over in that position, if you and our role -- is there a willingness to, even if you don't want to work with democrats in the house, to reach out to democrats in the senate, whose votes you will need, you know what i mean? >> we will definitely be the first ones to try to. i will do whatever it takes to secure our border. it's been difficult working for democrats on this issue. i got to say, democrat politicians, we should be specific and how we say that because you talk to democrats in texas, they want the border secure. south texas is turning red, i think it will vote in some republican candidates. just because of the border crisis. this is a democrat politician issue. for some reason, and they do give slippery arguments but we want to address recalls us, it's not humane to secure the border. well, it's not humane to let -- millions of people trying to do it the right way. it's not humane where border patrol is pushing the body out of the river. it's not humane with all the smuggling, when the cartels are

enriched by the crisis, facilitating it and pushing fentanyl across. so it's got to be bipartisan. enough has got to be enough. this is why i think it's actually important for us to actually talk about the courthouse. this is a common enemy. this is a common enemy that is slicing street drugs with poison and killing nearly 80,000 americans a year. we should be funding a tax force that directly targets. this why are we seeing big arrest for these cartel members that are not only pushing fat no across but actively visiting the border crisis. they have every one of them pay like 300 bucks before they cross the river. this is an active violation in our state sovereignty and national security. >> i hear you, but i have to say something that you just set does not fill me with confidence about the effort to find common ground because he referred to democrats talking about your causes and dependency issues as a slippery

argument. i have to say, knowing a little bit about the fentanyl and opioid crisis, i don't know that it's a slippery crisis -- slippery argument. maybe, you disagree with her border security, et cetera, but i think that is part of the situation and in fact, if you look at president trump's task force run by chris christie and kellyanne conway talking about opioids, they talked a lot about recalls is for drug dependency as well. it's not -- i understand that you want to focus on security -- >> we're talking about two different things. what i was referring to their arguments about recalls is, what they are often referring to is recalls in guatemala. causes in honduras, which is and credibly difficult for us to solve. i totally agree with what is happening on the fentanyl crisis at all angles, including root causes. there's actually very little disagreement there. there's been a lot of bipartisan legislation on dealing with opioids at the treatment level, but again, the fentanyl crisis is a little different than opioids. i distinguish within these two things because people are addicted to opioids, they know they are taking opioids. they know they are taking heroin. they might not know that somebody laced fentanyl in some back alley lab into that heroin or into dakota cain or into that lateral. that is poisoning, and this is got to be a unifying call for americans to say, look, there are a couple of organizations

directly responsible for this. they are right on the southern side of our border. they're well armed, well funded, and we don't even talk about them like they are an enemy at the state. this is got to be unifying. >> we've covered the fentanyl crisis and as you probably know, your folmer colleague congressman -- lost a nephew to eight who thought he was taking some over the counter supplement, and they had fentanyl and it. horrible, horrible tragedy and too common. congressman dan crenshaw, thank you so much, perhaps next time i will see you, i will call you mister chairman. we shall see. thank you for joining. us >> hope so, thanks, jake. >> 13 years is a long time to wait so is frankly one more day but tomorrow night, my beloved phillies will finally be back at the world series, making the magic happen. who better to preview the matchup against the astros then sports broadcasting legend bob costas. he'll explain why this is being called one a baseball's biggest mismatches in more than 100 years. i have more for you on that, that's coming up.

the 15th stuff against a powerhouse club with a record of cheating, that of course was the 2018 super bowl, when the eagles trounced the patriots. but since i clearly cannot be objective here. i thought i would bring in a guy who knows a thing or 2 about sports, his name is bob kostis, i am not sure if you have heard of him. he's here to help me out. so bob, thanks for joining us. every world series is full of storylines. what is the one that you are watching the classes this year

in the world series? >> well, dusty baker's a storyline and in fairness, and i realized you're having a little fun with your hyper partisanship for philadelphia teams, which you are entitled to, but once the sanctions came down, the astros were not able to use any different's tactics, and they made it as far as the alcs 6 straight years. they have been in the world series for a 6, so we can't attribute that to bringing a chance. this year's astros team won 106 games. they blitz through the postseason so far at 7-0. they are a really good team. dusty baker will likely make the hall of fame as a manager, plus he was a good player. he is a beloved figure, 73 years old, wiseman at the game, wonderful storyteller. the only thing that he does not have on his resume is a world series championship. he's been to the world series, but he has not won it.

he is improved suit of that one thing, a storyline. the phillies are also a storyline. they won only 87 games, and in the expanded playoffs, there are 12 teams playing in october and only one, the braves, who won 86 games, had a lesser record than the phillies. but a pennant race is a 163 game challenge, but the postseason now has become a tournament, and in a tournament, it's which team gets hot and stays hot. the phillies are not the team that won 87 games during the regular season and was the 6 playoff qualifier in the national league. right now, they're playing terrific baseball, and they got nola and wheeler setup, of course they'll face verlander and valdes, so that might be a push, but in any case, they're playing their best baseball.

if they can get out a fuse them the first 2 games to split and come back to citizens bank park for 3 4-5, the push will be crazy. who knows what will happen. >> i was there when they won the national league championship. it was crazy. the city of philadelphia becomes a player on the team. on paper, sports analysts note that this is a mismatch. obviously, the astros won 19 more regular season games than the phillies. this is the biggest differential in 116 years. the astros, as you know, have not lost once in the postseason. now, i want to go back to that 116 years ago, because that precedent is one of the underdog white sox beat the favorite cubs. so as you acknowledge, it's not all about what is on paper. >> yeah, that team, the cubs, 116 games in a 154 game season. in 1954, the dan cleveland indians were 111-43. willie mays and the new york giants swept him 4 straight in the rotors. we have had teams like the 87 twins, who did not have an imposing record but beat the cardinals in the world series. the cardinals themselves in 2006 snuck into the playoffs, got hot at the right time and wonder voters.

the seattle mariners won 116 games in 2001 and did not even make it to the rotors. that's kind of the nature of baseball. there are upsets in every sport, sure, but in a short series, in baseball, the nature of the sport, makes it more likely that the team that appears to be the lesser team on paper has a better chance, not a better chance to win but a better chance if they played 100 games -- but a decent chance to win a best of 5 or pasta 7. >> bob, stick around because i have more questions for you, not about baseball. you're going to stick with us. we'll talk about the nfl's new percussion -- concussion protocol, and what more can be done to keep players safe. i say this because my son just took up tackle football. he's 13. that's next.

we're carvana we created a brand new way for you to sell your car go to carvana answer a few questions and our techno wizardry calculates your car's value and gives you a real offer in seconds we'll come to you pay you on the spot then pick up your car that's it at carvana

frankly, i could talk with bob costas about baseball for like

8 hours but we're also in the heart of the postseason. for the next 27 straight days, we can watch football, whether college or the nfl. every single day until right before thanksgiving. that is a christmas gift for bob costas. thank you for sticking around. i want to ask you, it's been a couple weeks since the nfl put their new concussion particles into a fact. as a parent of a football player, my boy, my 13-year-old is now playing tackle football. he's in 7th grade. do you think we are still taking baby steps when it comes to head injuries? >> i think that there have been significant steps taken. there used to be to know. the nfl treated it the way that cigarette companies treated the connection between cigarettes and lung cancer for a long

time. they denied that there was any connection between football and cte. now they openly acknowledge, and they do everything they can within the nature of the game. equipment changes, protocols put into place, et cetera, but as someone once said, the biggest problem with football is football. it's the very nature of the game. injuries in other sports are by and large incidental, although they obviously have been. in football, it's just fundamental. it's a contact sport on every single play, and these sub concussive hits, especially the lineman, lineman collide on every play. that does not result in a diagnose-able concussion, but there are sub concussion hits on every play and cumulatively, that takes a toll. so the very nature of the game, as exciting as it is, as interesting as it is with all its strategy and the

generational connections and all the excitement, called sports, the campus officer, all that stuff, that's undeniable. but so too is the very nature of the game. >> it's true. some 2 million kids play youth and high school football. neurosurgeons tell us the real risk, as you note, from the cumulative hits to the head, whether or not they are conclusive. you have been vocal and your criticism of the nfl. they have of course a financial incentive to keep star players on the field. why do you think it is that lower levels in the game have been slower to change? >> well, they may not have the

resources to bring the medical personnel to bear and to bring experts to bear. but the research shows that the earlier you start playing, and if you continue to play, you start playing a pea level and right through high school and then to college, the earlier you start, therefore the longer you play, the greater your chance of having some sort of lasting damage so more down the road. it's just a fact. >> my wife and i had a dinner with a family whose son plays the cross, and he had a confession. they recommended distinct cold q color, i'm not sure you heard of it. it's a thing that pinches your neck and supposedly uses technology that woodpeckers used in terms of an extra degree of protection to the brain. >> no, but i am not an expert in either area, but a woodpecker must by nature have something within it scolded allows it to just pack away constantly. i guess we can't even capture how many times because it moves such a blurring of speed. their brains in heads our schools are constructed differently than human. i get the concept. we can apply some of that to a human. >> as my people often say -- bob costas, thank you so much, it's good to see you. there's a new film out tomorrow. it's set in 1960's america, and yet, it's still, even those in the 60s, it cannot be more topical. one of the stars of the film, the film is called collagen, is about to join us. the movie depicts the fight for safe abortions in the pre-roe v. wade era.

it was filmed before we ended up in a post-roe v. wade era. actress and director and superstar, elizabeth banks is here. that is next. seatgeek is the ticketing app for fans like the high-fives-strangers guy. game winning interception, first down, just a nice solid tackle - if you're in arms length, you will be swapping skin with this extrovert. you see he knows seatgeek got him a great deal on tickets, so he can focus on what he does best: smacking palms.

seatgeek handles the tickets to sports, concerts, and more, so fans can fan. this tiny payment thing- is a giant pain! hi ladies! alex from u.s. bank! can she help? how about a comprehensive point of sale system... that can track inventory, manage schedules- and customize orders? that's what u.s. bank business essentials is for. (oven explosion) what about a new oven, can u.s. bank help us there? we can serve loans in as fast as 12 minutes. that would be a big help! huge! jumbo! ginormous! woo! -woo! finding ways to make your business boom. that's what u.s. bank is for. we'll get there together. i've always had trouble falling asleep and staying asleep, you know, insomnia. but then, i found quviviq, an fda approved medication for adults with insomnia. and i'm glad i found it. you wouldn't believe some of the things people suggested to help me sleep. nature sounds? ahh, no thanks. my friend's white noise idea. nope.

and i'm not counting sheep. not on the...carpet. insomnia can impact both my days and my nights. so i know how important a good night's sleep is. that's why i take quviviq nightly. quviviq could help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer; and more sleep at night may mean feeling less tired during the day. maybe i should tell them how it works, taye? quviviq works differently than medications you may have taken in the past. quviviq is thought to target one of the biological causes of insomnia - overactive wake signals. do not take quviviq if you have narcolepsy. don't drink alcohol while taking quviviq or drive or operate heavy machinery until you feel fully alert. quviviq may cause temporary inability to move or talk or hallucinations while falling asleep or waking up. quviviq may cause sleepiness during the day. quviviq may lead to doing activities while not fully awake that you don't remember the next day like walking, driving and making or eating food. worsening depression including suicidal thoughts may occur. most common side effects are headaches and sleepiness. it's quviviq. ask your doctor if it's right for you.

for millions of americans, it

is one of the most important issues motivating them to vote in the midterm election. abortion, which is not fully or partially bent in 15 states. activists networks are not beginning to pop up around the country, but the goal of helping women in those states get access to abortion. this is not the first time that the u.s. has seen that type of movement. in fact, there is a film that comes out tomorrow about what life was like pre-roe v. wade. it starts elisabeth banks and courtney weaver. the movie was, in fact, can seat before the federal law roe v. wade, supreme court precedent, was overturned. this film is called, call jane. what was called the gene collective, every life underground operation in chicago that facilitated more than 10,000 abortions in the city between 1965 and 1973. elizabeth banks plays joy, we concerted housewife, whose

pregnancy torrence are like because of her heart condition. joy is eventually helped by the gene collective in her darkest are. here is a clip. >> someone did not get the chills at the word. >> this is for your cramps. >> it gets worse. >> so, which one of you is gene? >> nobody is jane. >> we're all jim. >> virginia started it. >> i did not mean to. >> brenda called, i found her safe doctor, and her friend called, and then her friends friend and then here we are. >> elizabeth banks joins us now. elizabeth, congratulations on the movie. i know that is not you, so i was very taken with how powerful the acting was. the movie is about pre-roe v.

wade in america, where women and girls can cannot get legal abortions, even in a progressive city like chicago. now, of course, we were actually in post reavie with america, so it's more relevant than ever. did you have a feeling that roe v. wade will be overturned when you agreed to make this one? >> whatever the motivations were for making the movie 3 and a half years ago, when i first signed on, the film has taken on such an incredible urgency in this moment in time, and it's a real reflection of the that is the market that we are looking at right now, at least in half of the states. and if the geo p had their way everywhere. >> right, you can't watch this film which deals with women and girls having this secretive network, where you are supposed

to call jean, and then you get hooked up with a bunch of individuals, without thinking this might actually not be the future, this might be the present right now. >> it is the president right now for so many women, especially in states like mississippi, louisiana, alabama. this is where abortion funds come into play, where the bridge aligns comes into play. these are organizations helping women get access to abortion care in states where it remains safe and legal, help women pay for childcare, travel expenses -- . it's a real economic injustice, and i think we cannot remind voters enough about the economic realities of forced births. every woman, the majority of women who access abortion care in america are already moms. they're already very well aware

of what pregnancy physically means to them, and what raising children means. these are women that are making family plans, and i think it's such an economic issue for so many people. the expenses of racing kids. >> one of the most moving and striking scenes in the film is when joy griffin and her husband, played by -- go before a board, and this all melts for debate, discuss, vote on whether they will allow her determining a pregnancy, which as i said, could kill her, and the board acts as if she is not even sitting there. tell me about filming that scene. >> you know, i think so many women can relate to the notion right now a feeling like the decision when and with whom and, if you have kids is no longer their own.

that is the case for women in more than a dozen states are now in america. i think that nobody wants lindsey graham or clarence thomas in their doctors office with them when they make this decision, but that is where we are at right now. a small group of politicians making decisions for millions and millions of american women and families and parents. it was that feeling, that oppressive feeling of not being in control of my own destiny, especially now that tops happened, that really made that scene feel real to me. >> so, you're obviously a supporter of abortion rights, and you're very passionate about it. do you think this film is for people who would agree with you on abortion rights.

it's a people in the middle of the road? it's a people that might even disagree with you? who do you see is the audience? >> it's a really entertaining film, jake. i know you saw it. i bet you laughed. >> there are funny moments, definitely. >> thank you. we've really felt like the in her life, and it's pretty judgmental of people who do. but once she needs that care and meets the chains, her sense of empathy for people who have to walk that walk, her sense of care for what that means really comes alive. i think if anything, anyone who sees the phone to take away from it a greater sense of empathy from a path they may never walk. >> you're great in this new film called jane. elizabeth, thanks for joining us. >> thank you, jake, thanks for

having me. >> and we'll be right back. you know that bargain detergent is 85% water, right? really? it's this much water! so i'm just paying for watery soap? that's why i use tide pods. they're super concentrated, so... i'm paying for clean, not water! bingo. don't pay for water. pay for clean. it's got to be tide pods vo: the next time you fill up the tank, remember why it costs so much. because the biggest oil companies decided they need to profit even more. they make record profits... even as americans struggle to pay the bills. call it price gouging. call it greed. call it enough already. with president biden's landmark bill, we are producing more clean energy than ever before. energy that's made in america energy that costs less for families. energy ... that will power our future.
