The ruling prompted outcries from abortion-rights activists across the country. Former Sen. Claire McCaskill and Jennifer Palmieri are joined by Christina Reynolds of EMILYs List to break down what happened in Texas and look ahead to how the push for abortion access will influence political races in 2024. Plus, they shine a spotlight on voters’ climate change concerns following this week’s COP28 Climate Summit in Dubai.
