they're going to sue the state of alabama. they've won before when it's come to abortion cases.

( cheers and applause ) we-- you know, we launched-- we launched "vote save america" last year. we're re-launching it this week. it's back. so you can go on the website. you can check to see if you're registered to vote. you can find out how you can help and volunteer, and there's a whole bunch of other information there. so, there are a lot of local and state elections in 2019 saw this week. >> look, there are probably a lot of teens watching this specific episode of your show. because-- because b.l.t. is going to be on.

maralyn mosely is from birmingham, alabama. when she was 20, she got pregnant, but couldn't afford a second child. i performed it with the set of knitting needles. i lay down in the bathtub and continued to work on it until you see blood. women often perforated their uterus and that had caused deaths of women. maralyn survived her abortion and, in the 70s, marched for women's rights. she remembers how roe v wade revolutionised the lives of women. roe was a lifesaver for women. they do not have to be concerned about, am i pregnant this month. they can be a doctor or lawyer. they can be anyone they want to become through birth control. it has given them the right to start their family when they want to, on their timetable. conservatives have wanted to overturn the supreme court ruling for decades. now, under president trump, the court has a conservative majority. so, could americans lose their right to abortion? this is the prize of the conservative movement. i can tell you that this current court is very, very likely to either s

"dude! dude, you were a monster! dude, you were a monster at the party last night. you recused yourself! i would have helped." the bill's proponents are very confident about its chances in the court, especially alabama pro-life coalition president and colonel sanders after he got his stomach stapled, eric johnston.

we saw doug jones of alabama it was against roy moore but a democrat won in alabama. stacey abrams in 2018, andrew gillum running for governor in florida. beto o'rourke in texas, all democrats in the south and they made the calculus that many are making. instead of running to the center and running as a milquetoast democrat trying to win over the centrist republican, run to stoke the democratic base. get hispanics in georgia as well as black voters to turn out. get white liberals to turn out. build a new kind of younger, more dynamic, more diverse coalition and that's the path to victory. that's the case many democrats are making if they want to come back in trump country in the south. >> well, you know, richard haass, it's interesting. let's put up that map again of the actual percentages because as you put that up, you actually see the states where there's at least income -- the

you know, we need to be one alabama. we need to be for everyone. you've got to have somebody there that is realistic. we want you to grab hold of the american dream. democrats are going to be there to try to help you. it is a big difference when you talk about generic democrats across the country as to what we deal with on a local basis. remember what tip o'neil said. all politics is local and that's how democrats have to folk ouns this. >> let's go national for a moment. have democrats, particularly candidates running for office, spending too much time and energy reaching out to people on the margins to help them and not enough time talking to the bulk of the middle class people? not that they shouldn't but when people of the state of alabama watch the debates and so much content talking about people at the southern border and healthcare there, does it affect them? do they start to say who is paying attention to me? >> i don't think there is any question about that. they do at some point. but make no mistake. we care about people at the border. we

a controversial case in alabama. police say somebody shot a pregnant woman in the stomach and the unborn baby died. the accused shooter walked free. a grand jury indicted the woman that was shot for the death of her unborn baby. that's because police say the pregnant woman, mashay jones started a fight over the baby's father and the other women had no choice but to shoot. the district attorney is set to announce whether to go through the grand jury's recommendation or let marshae jones go free. jonathan hunt has more. >> hi, trace. in advance of the afternoon announcement, civil rights groups have been calling on their members to contact the district attorney's office urging the district attorney not to pursue any criminal charges arch 27-year-old marshae jones. national organization for women's president issued a statement saying alabama and its authorities have proven that they don't care about women. this is another case of the inappropriate aggressive response law enforcement makes towards women of color. after a

we begin in selma, alabama. alabama,n selma, african-americans were denied the right to vote. there were folks throughout the south that did not want these people to have the right to vote . they can be considered second class citizens. poll taxes would be the price you had to pay per year in order to get on the voting rolls. say i live here in dallas county and allke 60 dollars taxes are one dollar a year. raise that isa $40. -- thenf my 60 will go i will have 20 which i have to feed and flow my kids. there are not very many black people who will have extra money left over to pay a poll tax. on something when i have an extra dollar left over and i go down to this courthouse and i show up saying i would like to register to vote. i would go to the county registrar, have my poll tax ready. takes my pollnel tax but he also administers a literary tax. that tests could take many forms. ask me the name of the probate judge in the county or the state on -- of alabama. now i have to scramble to name all these probate judges who are in charge of enforcing the law. any information in 19

you have the doug jones race in alabama. he's the one that took over jeff sessions seat and this is the reelection for the full term in alabama. what's going on there? >> part of doug jones dreams are coming true with roy moore entering the race. i think doug jones has an extremely difficult path to reelection. andst all of the baggage the stories surrounding roy moore he still almost won that race and we are going to have an entirely different level of in the 2017020 then special election. i think there will be at least 800,000 more voters in the 20 center race -- 2020 senate race. going tos is probably win alabama by 20 points. roy moore, there is going to be a crowded republican primary. roy moore is probably going to at least make the runoff. we will see if republicans in d.c. can prevent him from being the nominee. i guess i would encourage c-span viewers to be open-minded whether it's frightening or encouraging that even if he is the republican nominee he could win the senate race. host: the president last time was ver

the manslaughter law in alabama is very similar to other manslaughter law. the issue is is it constitutional to charge this woman because her fetus died? norjly under current supreme court precedence women have control and choices their own bodies, including if there is a fetus inside it. that's really the issue is under the federal constitution to bring charges against her for this. >> so row v wade gives a woman private choice about whether to terminate a pregnancy. you're saying it would encompass other choices by a pregnant woman as to whether she gets into a fight? >> and everything from can you drink one or two glasses of wine? all of the choices that women have the ability to make when they're pregnant could potentially be called into question if a person is inside you and you have to protect their life more than your own even. >> and then face consequences. so how does the defense argue here? >> so they make a motion saying that under the federal constitution it's unconstitutional to be prosecuted in this way and we'll have to see how that plays out.

they were talking about alabama and one said to me, and i quote here, no more r more old white men. that is roiling through the electorate here. >> all right. leanne, jeff and heidi are back. leanne, you wanted to bring up the culture wars what alabama and missouri have done on the abortion issue. the right and in many ways donald trump president of the united states because antonin scalia died and a whole bunch of trump skeptics decided they wanted a conservative on the court. democrats usually care about the court after something happens, never before. >> they're reactionary. >> because of alabama, there seems to be as you see from kay henderson, something. you seem to be picking this up. >> there's two issues that republicans have been organizing on for what, 40 years now? the court, stacking, filling the courts and abortion. and this is finally hitting democrats in the head because these are issues where they are have coming in to problems on their core beliefs that have not been challenged for so long. so you have mitch mcconnell in the senate filling the courts. you have all t

back in alabama, we met dina zirlott. dina says she was raped when she was 17. it was a boy i knew from school. he followed me into the kitchen and proceeded to push me down, and choke me and raped me. for ongoing health reasons, dina didn't find out she was pregnant until eight months later, which meant she couldn't get an abortion. she was also told her child would be severely disabled. there would be no higher function of her brain. she would be born blind and deaf, unable to probably suck a bottle. she would live in pain. dina loved zoe deeply but her child also brought back memories of the rape. i was constantly, constantly being brought back to that trauma on a regular basis.
