those who endorsed the statement include lindsey graham and katie britt.nators are coming out against the icc on both sides of the aisle. here is what steve ricketts told the bbc today. >> what the icc has done is outrageous. israel has an independent judiciary. the icc does not understand hamas is a terrorist organization that started the war. wars are horrible, let is what you don't start them. to go into -- the u.s. had to go into urban areas in world war ii to take out the nazis. israel must be allowed to do this to get hamas. chris coons is joining us live. thank you for joining us on world news emerita. you have strongly condemned the icc's actions. ready to sanction people involved. would you support that? sen. coons: we had a long and valuable hearing today with sec. in front of the foreign relations committee and appropriations committee and i agree with his statement that the icc has overreached its mandate that this was an outrageous exercise for the prosecutor to seek warrants of arrest against prime minister netanyahu and the defense minister

switch gears here to we saw an effort in the last week or so from senator ted cruz and senator katie britt two republicans on ivf in vitro fertilization, which of course, in the wake of the fall of roe has become a lightning rod, especially after that ruling in alabama. here's what ted cruz had to say about this earlier this week, as he makes this up, push, watch, we'll talk about it i think that's a moral decision. any person can make, and that's a decision they can make with according to their faith and according to their understanding of god's teachings. >> but, but as a matter of law, this should be a choice that is available for parents interesting that it's ted cruz that's out there doing this. there are some layers here, including the fact that he's up for reelection. 100%. >> and this is very much an election year gambit in my opinion, katie britt is a figure who is from alabama, the state where as you mentioned, the supreme court threatened access to ivf so that is that makes sense. but ted cruz is someone who is facing a challenge from collin all red and republicans nationwide. k

it stands in contrast to senators like katie britt, who are floating ideas and putting pregnant peoplea database. it's important for a leader to take this moment and demonstrate what it looks like to stand with americans. what it looks like to protect access to productive freedom and the idea that this measure could not pass the senate. right? this measure could not pass when you know that the overwhelming majority of people in america use contraception is , it is insane to me. >> scotus has not issued its opinion on the challenge to the fda's 2016 and 2021 decision that expanded for mifepristone. >> what happened in louisiana will be exported throughout any 21 band states that exist right now. they are pushing the envelope. dobbs, returning the power to the states to make decisions to abortion access was not enough. they are trying to go further. we should look at this as a laboratory. we should look at this as an opportunity to sport these more tactics, more intimidation tactics, ideas around surveillance and criminalizing carrying mifepristone and helping anyone who gets access to m

you might have seen ted cruz and katie britt their own idea of legislation and tammy duckworth she madess you're directly addressing ivf, birth control, it's all distraction on their part. but it fells you that they're running scared. it's really important that senate democrats draw this line. it's also important that we keep repeating as allies to the administration and democrats that this is the disaster that trump wrought. most voters aren't paying close attention. we know that. we know we can persuade them when he bragged about overturning roe, it's effective bought we've got to keep repeating it over and over again. we can't repeat it enough. >> i would assume and you can tell me otherwise that birth control is widely supported in the united states. >> it's incredibly popular. the majority of americans including republicans and independents. the fact we're even talking about it is wild. yes, it's very popular. and contraception it feels like the place to go if the abortion argument isn't resonating, basic contraception as something the republicans can't bring themselves to support

. >> christina, speaking of the gop agenda and home appliances, remember senator katie britt's response emphasized home values in a spotless beige kitchen? it is emblematic of where republicans values are. >> we saw that staging in the kitchen. you don't have to be a man to uphold patriarchy. we have seen republican white women do that consistently. so as we scratch our heads and say women are against some of these policies, we have to remember that republicans have done a very good job of planting the seeds within the women within their party so they can uphold the mantle and carry it across the finish line. they can have their female members of the house support the bills that are antthetical to a woman's right to choose. >> michelle, i have to ask you about the rights that should be prioritized for the election cycle. there is little to be done in the next six months before the election but assuming democrats are able to reverse course in the house and hold onto the senate in retaining the white house, what becomes the priority going into 2025? >> well, look. one thing that democrats

you have ted cruz and katie britt even talking about support for ivf. what chuck schumer is doing is really smart. right now, we're going to call your bluff we're going to put it right to contraception vote and ivf bill on the floor. theoretically, they should have a shot at passing. >> yeah. we saw the immigration bill go down, voted against by people who actually negotiated that. >> that is a great example. it is so important for voters to understand what we are dealing with, right? republican can go on fox news all day, they can talk about what they plan to do, where they stand, but ultimately we have to put them on the record and that is the brilliance of this move and that is why we are supportive and campaigning around these two bills. >> so as we all know, there are initiatives beyond the ballot all over the country in november, not all of these initiatives are the same, not all of them would in trying access to reproductive care. the aclu of south dakota says there stays proposed amendment, quote, runs the risk of establishing a right to abortio

. >>> elsewhere on capitol hill, republican senators katie britt of alabama and ted cruz of texas have introduced a bill to protect invitro fertilization. if passed the legislation would protect ivf by banning states to receive medicaid funding if they restrict or ban the procedure. the measure comes after alabama's supreme court ruled in february that embryos fertilized through the treatment should be considered children. alabama's governor later signed a bill that overruled that and protected ivf access in the state. in response to yesterday's bill multiple democratic senators came out against the legislation arguing that it contains a series of gop poison pills. >>> and lastly, the massive container ship that crashed into baltimore emphasis francis scott key bridge causing its catastrophic collapse nearly two months ago has finally been removed. tug boats could be seen yesterday escorting the dali -- the name of the ship -- out of the channel and back to port. crews first had to pump out more than a million gallons of water in order to refloat the ship. repairs were expected to take

in using leverage, which as you just outlined in your last block, is not unprecedented, despite katie brittcan all look them up. it is significant for the biden administration for a number of reasons. one is clearly the president has a long history of supporting israel. he has had a rocky and tricky relationship with my minister benjamin netanyahu, way back to the time. then will remember this well. as vice president, he went to visit israel and there was an announcement of settlements built while he was in israel. he has had a rocky relationship but he's been very supportive. it is significant because they reached this point we are holding back military commitment weapons, which israel is reliant on, is a step that i don't think people would have predicted he would have been six month ago. it is also a step that many people would have liked him to do earlier. it is, i think it will be applauded. somebody said it is a step and more needs to happen. you can't just wave a magic wand and get a cease-fire. that would be great. this is a step that hopefully will show the u.s. is willing to use l

alabama senator katie britt is with. ask yo senator, let me ask you this. the question was simple. would you force force t your daughter to undress in a bathroom with boys who are also undressing? and if your daughter was reported, felt uncomfortable in a boys presenceshe in bathro or locker room? would that be considered ro to beadministrationr lock discriminatory discrimination or bigotry? yediscrimi or bigos or no? why is that a hard question to answer. that's a simpl why ie question r me. the answer is no. i would not want my daughter in the same locker room bathroom or undressingcker roo with other young people. >> no, i wouldn't want that. right.t thatand should be a simple answ, obviously, particularly when, y say, does the young woman feel uncomfortable? and if she says she youne does, is that discrimination? it's a it's a simple answesr. and that's the problem with this administration. and every single turn they worke to blur the lines. this title nine both rule and the proposal that is coming out totally unacceptable. i mean, we look at it in that proposal. they also say

also, senators ted cruz,ou katie britt react to the far left using lawfare against trump. as we continue britt . they were among the toughest, most dedicated woman this country has ever seen. and maybe the greatest of them all was a former slain u.s. march three. >> in the midst of violence and prejudice is committed to justice no matter the cost. i am looking for men who are willing to fight for justice, civil rights for all, and his lives on in every marshall who wears the badge today. today. >> this is how it was in law.s. >> lawmen on fox nation. >> lawmen on fox nation. i try to put my arm around anye, vet that i can. >> absolutely. >> absolutely. at new day, us what we're doing. we put our arm around the veterans. i think that the veteran out i think that the veteran out ther solutiofamilies. his home. he may want to purchase and we can help them. can help them. them and their families. them and their families. >> it's feeling. >> everybody in the company, c they have that deference and that respect and thaoft love for the veteran that makes this company so unique. >

i approached kate, katie britt's senator from alabama and i said, look, let's team up let's draft a very simple bill that creates strong federal protections that makes clear no state can ban ivf and that's what we did. we made it as a condition of medicaid funding. that's that's a frequent method of imposing a federal restriction on the states it's long upheld, but i'm curious about that because i mean, your home of texas, my home state of alabama. they're not seeking tebor expand medicaid funding. it's more of a punishment. so it's kind of tied to that. so they could still technically ban ivf. they just wouldn't be able to receive medicaid funding if they didn't practical matter, no one is going to turn them down. billions of dollars than medicaid funds. you know, it's it's a method, for example, it's how congress us, congress use highway funds to get states to raise the drinking age 21. and it was the same thing. it was a condition you don't get your highway funds unless you rage raise your the age and they did so. it's how congress you go back in the 70s, use highway funds also to low

. >> thank you, senator katie britt. >> i wanted to mention, from my opening statement, in 2022, the employee benefits security ministration issued a final rule that allowed fiduciaries to consider environmental and social factors when making decisions. what brought that decision forward? and was that a requirement, from the president, to have that all throughout every department, considerations of climate change? because, as we look at the social security trust fund, which a lot of people are relying on for retirement, and also their retirement plans, in my view, the best way to keep our retirees, as they move into their senior years, in the best possible position, is to have the maximum financial benefit accrue to their plans, regardless. i could see if things were illegal. but if you are talking about a national -- natural gas company oracle company that is really maximizing profits. this rule, if this takes it under consideration, that would eliminate it as a possibility. >> i very much appreciate the question and the way in which you asked it. because i agree, i agree, of course

that's why i introduced the nih improve act, alongside katie britt and representatives underwood and fitzpatrick in the house to help address some of these disparities, the nih improve act authorizes the funding necessary to sustain the critical activities of the national institute of health's improve initiative, which supports research on how to reduce preventible causes of maternal death, improve health for women before, during, and after pregnancy. the initiative aims to address the four most causes of maternal mortality in the united states as well as significant pregnancy-associated and pregnancy related health complications such as diabetes, obesity, mental health and substance use disorders. this bill would provide the steady funding necessary, at least for the next seven years, to ensure that nih it continue to pursue this research into the root causes of our maternal mortality crisis. the bill will also help to build an evidence base to further improve maternal health care in underserved areas and target health disparities associated with maternal mortality and morbidity. ju
