former president of planned parenthood and cofounder and president of the center for the advancement of women faye wattleton. i'm maria hinojosa. this is one on one. captioned by media access group at wgbh access.wgbh.org >> hinojosa: faye wattleton, thank you for being here. >> thank you. it's my pleasure to be invited. >> hinojosa: so people know you because for over a decade you ran planned parenthood federation of america. you were the face of that organization and of that movement for many, many years. and then you left and you created the center for the advancement of women. and you recently released this report basically on the status of women, what's interesting to them, what matters to them. and i have to say, i was just fascinated with this statistic-- 92% of the women who you asked said that the biggest issue that they face, that they're most concerned with as women in america today, is domestic violence and sexual assault. >> we were surprised also. we performed this study as a benchmark to the beginning... for the beginning of the 21st century to measure where women stan

planned parenthood said it's quote optimistic about the new regulations or change here. you also have narol, today's regulation affirmed the commitment to fulfilling the full promise of the historic policy thanks to the commitment, most american women will get birth control coverage without extra expense. what is your reaction? >> this is really just another step in the administration's process of clarifying how women will have access to the important health care service and makes clear that houses of worship will not be covered if they have a religious objection and that religiously affiliated organizations like universities and non-profits potentially will have coverage offered to the female employees and students via the insurance company and the religiously affiliated institution don't need to be involved and meet it is criteria of women accessing the health care they need and not infringing on any potential religious concerns. >> the statement of cardinal timothy dolan, the president of the u.s. conference of catholic bishops said we welcome the opportunity to study

however i have also supported funding for planned parenthood because they do the best work in reducing unwanted pregnancies and therefore also reduce abortio abortions. that has been my position. i don't support attacking row v wade. that's all that it will do is change the locations from a clinical setting to one that is much more dangerous for women. and i did take the floor and i consider myself pro life. i know there pro life people saying i am not pro life or not pro life enough. i am not an expert on the church position on this, but i am an expert on my own beliefs and one of the way we can reduce abortion is doing what we have been doing which is providing full access to contraceptive services like planned parenthood does and the statistics also bear out that this might be working for the first time in 40 years, we are seeing a lower number of abortions because in part we have greater access to informed decisions being made by woman who have access to birth control counseling. >> absolutely. to that point and your support of row v wade, you told the boston globe you would absolu

planned parenthood president says it would provide access no matter what.akes it clear that your boss can't decide if you have birth control. meanwhile, the compromise is unacceptable, others say. religious freedom is not up for negotiation, there must be no test by the government as to who and what types of entities are entitled. and somebody who gets more excited at new health care regulations than anyone i have ever known. sarah, good to see you. so how does it work in practice? let's say that you work for religious organization, and you want to have access to contraception. how do you find that insurance? where does it come from? >> well, it will find you, in a way. the insurance will find you. what happens is let's say that catholic university says i oppose it, i never provided birth control. then they tell the insurance company, they are automatically required to enroll you in the standing birth control plan. the catholic university doesn't have to do anything, you are automatically enrolled just by them notifying your insurance company. >> and who pa

you know, i would suggest the parents in a similar situation go to planned parenthood because they haveing for teenagers and they can tell them the options, the choices. they're not going to say, have an abortion, don't have an abortion, but they'll go through all the options, and the risks versus the benefits, the consequences of the choices. i think that's what is necessary. often when parents start talking with their teenage who is already pregnant, the parents are upset, as apparently these parents were, at least according to reports, and maybe they can't be quite as objective because it's their child and they're trying to protect their daughter. >> when does parental responsibility begin and end. you need parents permission to get a driver's license, tattoos, pierce your ears, and yet apparently, you can make the choice to have, as you say, a life changing, the biggest economic commitment of your life, prance, without anyone else having any say, the government or your parents. >> that's good, and that's a good point that is often pointed out by sometimes the anti-choice people. hav
