In my first segment, I discuss key provisions in the reconciliation bill (Build Back Better Bill) that directly impact the children in our country. I go over universal preschool, affordable childcare, and the extended child tax credit. I discuss why these initiatives are important and what might keep them from existing. In my guest segment, I am joined by Maggie Bornstein. We discuss The Hyde Amendment. What exactly it is, how abortion restrictions affect people, misconceptions around abortion legislation, and the challenges that clinics face acquiring funding.
