wade. yesterday, senator spector asked you, as he asked john roberts before, a series of questions about whether or not you accept the concept that this is somehow a precedent that we can rely on that is embedded in our experience. that if it were changed to a call into question the legitimacy of the court. and time and time again, he brought you to the edge, hoping that you would agree and rarely, if ever, did you acknowledge that you would agree. you made the most general statement that he believed reliance was part of stare decisis. but let me just ask you this again, john roberts said that roe v. wade is the settled law of the land. do you believe it is the settled law of the land? >> roe v. wade is an important precedent of the supreme court. it was decided in 1973, so it's been on the books for a long time. it has been challenged on a number of occasions and i discussed those yesterday and it is my -- and the supreme court has reaffirmed the decision. sometimes on the merits, sometime

and ever since the day that the roe vs wade decision came down. conservatives led by the evangelical christian movement, have worked to overturn it. and the way you overturn it is to elect republican presidents to appoint conservatives to the supreme court. and once you have enough conservatives on the supreme court, you can throw out precedent and change the law. well, it took 50 years, 49 years. yeah, well just this year the supreme court astonished everybody by reversing it's longstanding abortion policy. you know, it overturned the rovers, wade and planned parenthood versus casey decisions in one fell swoop. and what everybody says it returns the issue of abortion back to the states. now that's good in some ways because there are pro life states that will make, you know, in some way outlaw abortion, they will at least shut down the surgical abortion centers and that will probably save some lives. ah, well, the overturning of roe vs wade. well, it's a tremendous victory. it's a historic victory. something we fought for for almost 50 years, is something to celebrate. and in tremend

so abortion was illegal in the united states until the case of roe vs wade made its way to the supreme court in the early 19 seventies. jane rowe was not her real name. there was a woman before her that was known as jane doe. she dropped out of the case. the 2nd woman was jane row. she was pregnant and wanted an abortion, but abortion was outlawed. so she filed a federal law suit and it went through the entire federal court system until finally the supreme court ruled by a vote of i think it was 7 to 2 that a woman has a constitutional rights to privacy. now this, these words right to privacy, opened a door that just changed american society because right to privacy meant a rate to have sex with whoever you wanted in the privacy of your own home. so sodomy, laws were overturned, it was a right to have an abortion. it was a right to to be gay. all these cultural laws that we had were thrown out in the ro versus we decision. and then abortion clinics opened all around the country. some states were able to put a cap on abortions in that you could have an abortion if you work less than 3 m

what this was about was protest against the supreme court decision to reverse roe v wade. and certainly that was the focus of many people within the march. the right for women's to own the own reproductive rights. however, with that as well. busy there's another surge of energy using this as a fulcrum to drive people to the elections, the midterm elections that occur in november. the scene as a very important part of this rally and all of the march is taking place across the united states to day. president biden has said that he has done what he can in terms of restoring roe v wade. and it is now up to the people of america to take action, to go to the polls in november and vote for those who support reproductive rights, who fight for those who support a woman's right to choose what she wants to do with her body. but there's also an overarching situation here that we've heard from numbers of the marches that it's not just about agenda, not just about woman's right to choose. it's also about a broad base attack on democracy itself with the united states. many here seeing a

wade. sen. peters: there is a move to look at that as to how we codify roe v. wade. but bottom line we need votes to do that. that is why these elections are so important. if folks believe that roe v. wade should continue to be the law of the land as it has been for over half a century, they need to make sure that voice is heard loud and clear at the voting booth in the coming weeks. it is on the ballot. this is going to impact every state, especially if there is a ban as republicans have proposed. we also know the republicans have proposed legislation. i mentioned lowering drug costs for our seniors, for our price of medicines, no republican voted for that. now the have introduced legislation taken away from the american people, a process by which we can lower drug prices. this is the rates about contrast and about -- and it is a race that should be very clear to the american people that will impact their lives in a very clear way. it is a contrast between candidates running to make sure they are voting democratic. jonathan: what is the democratic response to the re

wade happened and we saw democrats make huge progress. the president got a lot done and now here we are. things are looking tight. >> it's been an eventful year politically. we've seen that expressed in the polling. let's take a look at where it is right now. what you're seeing here is the generic ballot. the average and the generic ballot. this is the poll question where we, who want to control congress, republicans or democrats. the republicans now have an average lead, take all the different poles out there, 2. 2 points for republicans three weeks out. how does that compare at this point to a recent wave elections? you can see, it's lower than it was an 18 when democrats had their wave. they were seven points at this point. lower than in 2010 when republicans had that big wave in obama's first term, and lower in 2006 when democrats and george w. bush's second midterm year. but it is notably here, higher than it was at this point in 2014. this was barack obama's second midterm. this was a wave that was kind of a late building wave. it k
