the pregnancy and childbirth. so why can't it be smuggled into acceptabiacceptabi lity with the catholic church? this is a medication, the primary effect of which is to make you more healthy, which is a secondary benefit but that, of course, is not why you're doing it come of preventing pregnancy? >> guest: a fascinating argument. if john rock had taken that to the church in 1950s sf try to compare it to the rhythm method but since we have this new women's health pill that come in addition to all of these other benefits, allows them to decide when they're ready to get pregnant or not. when they are ready to start the big catholic families which is what the church wanted. they wanted cash but then it might of been a different argument. it's all about how you bring these things. they took their best shot at framing it. they focus o focus on the issuee day, which for population control and not sexy, not in women's health. they thought the best issue for them in terms of propaganda, in terms of gaining public support

>> in our view by drawing this distinction between employees affected by pregnancy, childbirth, or relatedmedical conditions, they cannot draw that distinction. instead they look only at the ability to work prohibiting discrimination based on the source. it does not prohibit discrimination based on different job classifications. if an employer says no driver drives alone we will get an accommodation whether for an on-the-job injury, dot disqualifying injury or pregnancy, that is fine. we do not read the statute as an independent reasonable accommodation. >> but why then -- i am not quite understanding why you get the source classifications into a different category from all other classifications. explain that. >> it goes to the statutory text. the statutory text says women affected by pregnancy, childbirth, and related, and related medical conditions shall be treated the same. what that text is saying is to an employer don't consider whether this person is affected by pregnancy or not. that is not the basis on which you can compare this employee. instead based on ability to work. this was

a lot more weight for example with religious objections that you're saving women from death in childbirth. >> guest: it is disappointing that even now it doesn't carry more weight because it should carry more weight today. >> host: people don't think anymore that death and childbirth is a thing. 800 women a year in the united states, it is a record of maternal mortality. it's not that good compared to others. >> host: >> guest: the pill reduced the number of infantry mortality overnight. you start to see all these changes occurring for the opportunity is really within a couple of years of the approval. so no question about it it's something that we take for granted now. >> host: let's talk about the social changes the pill helped to bring about. just talk about that hell did their lives change? >> guest: used her to see them pushing back the age of marriage and that they had their first children. >> host: this is terrible. >> guest: you see them go to college and stay longer and become secretary and they stay for four years and get bachelors degrees. by the mid-60s it's on the cover of "t

it could hasten the contractions, hasten childbirth, and stop the bleeding afterwards. so for generations this had been used, you know, in childbirth, and so his boss began to experiment with this substance, and he discovered that the basic molecule that all the active parts were based on was something called lysergic acid. and so hoffman's job when he got there was to start experimenting with search acid -- search acid and he started playing god and combined with different chemicals that he thought, maybe they might have an interesting use, medical use. and he did 24 of these things and he found some useful compounds. and then he did the 25th one, and that was combined with by a salon which was derived from ammonia. and three at the lysergic acid, and the german word begins with an s. it was the 25th company tries of this is lsd 25. you synthesize this and the guys in the lab are unimpressed but it did have some kind of constriction of blood vessels but not as good as some of the other compounds you come up with. it in but anything else that particularly attracted them

. >> guest: they were offered sterilization after every childbirth. they were not forced but they were offered and they paid for most of of the stairs of nations. the average woman had seven children so when they heard there was a pill available whether they knew it was an experimental product or not it didn't matter. they began begging for it and lining up at the clinics and when the preachers would say we heard there is a new contraceptive remember the church doesn't allow this alliance would be longer than x. days because it was like advertising. it was definitely demand. when they tried to force it on these nursing students they went into go for it because the side effects were so severe and they couldn't put up with terrible side effects but it was much higher than they needed to be. so when the pill was first marketed it wasn't marketed for birth control it was marketed as the regulation. can you talk a little bit about that? the whole process of the revealed that this is what falls out? >> guest: they are having to fight doing things in ways th

i mean the statutory text says, women affected by pregnant sir childbirth or related medical conditionsshall be treated same et cetera as other persons not so affected in their ability to work. what that text is saying to an employer don't consider whether this person is affected by pregnancy effected or not so effected that is not basis you compare this employee to other employees. compare this employee on based on ability to work. this was in generals to general electric v. gilbert which upheld employer policy distinguished based on the source of the disabling condition. treated some kinds of disabling conditions differently than pregnancy related disabling conditions. >> you have admitted that other persons can not be read literally. you have to reed things things into. you would read people into it the people in the same job classification but if you can do that then why can't you also read into it people whose injuries or disabilities have the same source? >> because once you do that then the second clause of the pda doesn't occupy any space. then congress should have stopped with

we met one woman who said that it's like the pain of childbirth day in and day out, year in and year out and because she was unable to look after her children and several of them have died presumably of malnutrition because she couldn't support them. and so it isn't just blindness. it goes just so much beyond that. and we watched this little nurse do a 40-dollar operation that gave her site back. it's a very quick procedure and afterwards one of the staff said can i help you little and she said get out of may way. and in that case it was through the national. i think we are also getting a better handle on the kind of interventions that do make a difference. one of the things we emphasize in the past is that it has been an emerging and robust evidence-based both at home and abroad about what works. whether you are talking about washington or tanzania the best escalator is probably education and conversely for the kids that most need it whether tanzania or washington is often broken, but if you look at the most cost-effective way to get one more child in school, does anybody know what

pregnancy and childbirth are not only physical and medical experiences, after all, they are also social experiences that in modern america, just as when abortion was criminalized in the 1870s, served to protect womens' ability to participate in society on equal footing with men. would we be live anything a different world -- living in a different world today had blackman based abortion lights on the need to balance, or would the same people who don't accept women's privacy rights say, well, if women can't be equal without abortion, they'll have to stay this their place. as i write, reporters describe the return of illegal abortion in states where clinics have closed. in texas women in the rio grande valley now hundreds of miles from a clinic, they're going over the mexican border to buy a drug which causes miscarriage and is sold over the counter there as an anti-ulcer medication. some women can't or won't get to a clinic. they're undocumented immigrants and fear arrest, they have no money, there's too much shame around abortion to risk being seen by someone who knows them. but now with
