Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! On today's show, host Amber Perry is joined by ProPublica Editor Ziva Branstetter to discuss recent reporting on the consequences of a 6 week abortion ban in Georgia.
ProPublica, a national nonprofit newsroom, published the first two installments of its project "Life of the Mother: How Abortion Bans Lead to Preventable Deaths" last week. Included are stories about women who, according to the reporting, died because they were unable to access medical treatment that had been available prior to Georgia's new 6-week ban.
Branstetter details how and why ProPublica decided to pursue these stories, what they hope will result from their reporting, and what stories they are pursuing next.
