i come from the state of texas. i was born in texas 60 years ago. so texas is all i know. but iswhat makes it so easy for a state like texas to go and rent folks reproductive choices out of their hands is that this is the same state that refuses to allow comprehensive sex education to be taught in the schools. this is the same state that understands clearly that if you provide folks having babies with six additional months of medicaid that they possibly won't die.they were refused to do it. this is the exact thing same state who has killed tens of thousands of people by mismanaging coated the same folks who say they send our children to school unprotected. the same folks. these are the same folks who continue to let the police kill black folks and then give them more resources so that they can be incentivized to kill more black folks. these are the same people so i just want to tell you all as i close we've got to keep on fighting. we can't give up. the cause you see, not only is it healthcare but my organization we believe that it's also self-care. and we said that loud a

pregnant in texas. where our fraternal morbidity and the tally rate is already unconscionably high, especially for black women and pregnant people of color, texas deserves better. i know firsthand that abortion saves lives. for the thousands of people i have cared for, abortion is a blessing. abortion is an act of love. abortion is freedom. we need federal protection now. we need laws that elevate science and evidence and recognize the autonomy of people accessing care. the women's health protection act is an important and critical step not enough. we need legislation that will protect pregnant people and birthing people in all their decisions so they can live their healthiest lives, but most of all, we need you to not forget about us, the people in texas and other restrictive states who are trying our best to care for ourselves, for our families, and our communities amid efforts to completely control our bodies and lives. thank you. chair maloney: thank you. ms. aziz, you're recognized for five minutes

the crisis in del-rio, texas expanding beyond texas and into arizona. i am standing in the same town and spot where we saw a surge of haitian migrants just a few weeks ago. border agents tell me they're preparing for another gigantic wave as the wall in del-rio remains unfinished and will stay that way. i'll be bringing you what he'll we saw, including an encounter with migrants moments after they crossed into america. how hard was the trip? >> cold. maria: so where will you go now? >> [speaking in spanish] maria: we are live from del-rio, texas all morning long with the fallout. markets this morning are searching for direction, take a look. we are looking at a flat showing this morning with the major averages moving fractionally, after stocks fell yesterday, markets seeing losses to start the week due to mounting inflation fears. "mornings with maria" is live right now. hundreds of thousands of migrants are streaming into america. i got a firsthand look at how they are leaving their mark. watch. >> if you look down in the river, you can actually see th

things are going about as you would expect in texas from texas republicans. but as i mentioned, here is that aforementioned bright spot. the week after the november election, november 10, texas' republican lieutenant governor, bomb thrower dan patrick, posted this offer of a reward. it's all in the headline there. patrick offers up to $1 million in bounties for voter fraud convictions. texas lieutenant governor dan patrick saying, quote, anyone who provides information that leads to an arrest and final conviction of voter fraud will be paid a minimum of $25,000. almost immediately, somebody took dan patrick up on his offer. but it was assuredly not what dan patrick had in mind. lieutenant governor dan patrick's counterpart in pennsylvania, the democratic lieutenant governor in pennsylvania, john fetterman, started finding cases, individual cases here and there of republicans committing voter fraud in the state of pennsylvania. nothing that was going to affect the result of the election but a few people here and there who basically tried to vote twice for dona

, in the state of texas. in his 113 page opinion and order, release tonight, judge robert pittman says, from the moment s.b. 8 when into effect, women have been unlawfully prevented from exercising control over their lives, in ways that are protected by the constitution. that other courts, may find a way to avoid this conclusion, is there's to decide, this court, will not sanction, one more day. of this offensive, deprivation of such an important right. leading off our discussion tonight in this segment's democratic senator chris van hollen of maryland he's. a member of the senate appropriations committee, and budget committee. senator, i want to get your reaction to this ruling by judge pittman. judge pittman is a president obama appointee to the federal core. a district judge in texas, saying that this law in texas denies women and establish constitutional right. >> hi lawrence, good to be with you. this texas law, is bly in the unconstitutional. it clearly violates roe v. wade, and that's what judge pittma

gohmert is right, texas did this years ago i will say words >> the gentleman from texas reserves. the gentleman from new york is recognized. >> i yield three minutes to the distinguished gentlelady from texas, again from texas, miss jackson-lee. >> the chair recognizes the distinguished gentlelady from texas. >> mister speaker, i think you and i thank the distinguished chairman of the judiciary committee for yielding, and with the distinguished gentleman from rhode island, judge gohmert we know that texas knows how to lead. so thank you so very much for bringing that to our attention. let me take just a moment to turn and say thank you to chairman jeffries for leaving us on and providing the energy and the engine for doing something that is both, and will be, lifesaving. it is and will continue to be life-saving. it is my life's work to use the criminal justice system as a reform mechanism to save lives, and to ensure that it is not a system that unequally prides itself in supporting the rights sometimes of the offender, without acknowledging the rights of the victim. in many inst

texas is a leader in oppression. it is institutionalizing and legalizing racism, my savageny, and transphobia. the lone star state is hardly alone in its oppressive ambitions. other states watching and waiting, poised to follow its lead. texas created a blueprint for abortion restrictions with republicans in at least seven other states planning to replicate the state's restrictions. we could look forward to some of those states mimicking texas on voter restrictions as well. in this way, texas is a harbinger of doom. it's the leading edge of regression. it provides a picture of where the republican-controlled portion of the united states may be heading, down the tubes in a stetson hat. is texas going down the tubes, congresswoman? >> texas is a megaphone that needs to be -- at least a megaphone that is present. and unfortunately, our state government is controlled by persons who are, as charles has indicated, part of the doom of a past america. they're part of the doom of oppression. but i want you to know that there

. >> james is with the texas tribune. what is the process for redistricting in texas? speak to the little bit different this year because the census got slowed down through some issues they had. but right now we are going through a 30 day special legislative session. in that 30 day special session where going to draw out new maps for the state house, the state senate, congressional seats we have in first state board of education. >> host: has the population increase in texas been broad-based or centered in a certain area? >> it has been pretty brought across the board throughout the state. but it has been concentrated in urban areas. that is important because in those urban areas there have been an increase of a population that has been driven primarily of people of color. we had a story on her new site that said 95% of the growth in the state had been driven by people of color. that is important because the state grew by 4 million people over the last decade. nearly 2 million of those were hispanic growing the population. that is important because that has to be comme

one important example of this, in texas the growth of the what we saw in texas, 90% of that growth was fueled by communities of color. the recent maps of the united states senate of texas, did not add one district of a majority minority. instead of that but we have seen is the practice of cracking, in suburbs of dallas, latino and asian entity being cracked. this is what's truly marry me, even if you have the right to vote you, not going to have a community of interest to really have that translated, and to me this is what's so worrisome, because it sticks for the very least in the next ten years. >> in fact, the graphic we showed as we went to last break, texas has already become a brand in the worst way. it's from, texas virginia. we reminding people to vote no member side of second. bill, i have a quote for you on the virginia race and politics a large. this is from the new york times, with former president trump out of our office, congressional democrats in a bitter standoff, in virginia democrats having claimed every bullet political prize, mr. mcauliffe is straining to motivate t

are you saying that texas has in effect denied the rights granted under roe in texas? >> yes, yes. that has been for decades now because of policies like the hyde amendment, but also through our numerous track laws that have been enacted over the past two decades in this state, it has systematically kept many of the communities that i care for in pregnancy care unable to access abortion care at all, whether it's because there are no clinics in their communities, they're not able to access their clinics, they're not able to provide the right documentation to be able to access care or they simply can't afford care. >> what would you ask of washington if you could -- if there was some way to do it legislatively. there's always been a discussion of legislating roe versus wade. if that were legislated by the congress and enforced in texas, how -- what would that change in texas? >> i mean, it would be huge, right? we need the women's health protection act now. that would remove the myriad of medically unnecessary restrictions we have in texas and across the country, at least for adults.

in texas. today marks the 30th day that people in texas have woken up with fewer constitutional rights than the rest of the country. no matter what the court does moving forward, we will not be able to erase how its actions failed texans and our constitution. roe is deeply woven into our country's fabric. people have firmly supported the fundamental right to abortion for decades and have relied on roe's protections in their lives. if the court tugs at the threads that undergird roe, the impact would not be limited to abortion rights. this legal unraveling would implicate a range of rights that, like roe, rests on the constitution of lib ter and equality. the right of parents to raise chair children in the mat manner of their children, the right to probing ate. if roe falls, it would endanger all these rights as well. it would also put at serious risk our country's notions of the rule of law, the legitimacy of the judiciary and the principal of defers to longstanding preference. in conclusion, i

that's why love texas. they are trying their best to turn you the other direction, but you seem to be in good shape . john corwin and ted cruz are wonderful senators. thank you for sending these guys to the senate. if ted could get over his shyness. [laughter] ted and i have scrapped every now and then but usually we are on the same side. i have never met a more dedicated constitutional conservative in my life. thank you very much. john corwin, he was stalwart when it came to judges. [indiscernible] like everybody in this room, and i appreciate them both. [laughter] speaking of president trump, we weren't, but we are now. when i saw that picture, it scared me, i thought he was here. the one thing i can tell you you will never have him to [indiscernible] you might want to get used to that cut out. it's probably all you're going to get. i was born in the 60's, i ran for president 2020 and if you don't remember that, it really is not your fault. it didn't last long. i got a t-shirt, i enjoyed it. trump and i d

in texas the growth that we saw in texas, 95% of that fuel was fuelled by communities of color. the latest approved by the texas state senate did not have one district of a majority minority. instead of that what we've seen is the practice of fracking. what we've seen is a latino entity and an asian entity being tracked. so, this is what truly worries m that even if you have the right to vote that you aren't going to have a community of interest to have that translated. to me, this is what's so worrisome because it sticks at least for the next ten years. >> the graphic we showed as we went to the last break, texas has become a brand in the worst way. it's from a campaign rally in virginia. and it says don't texas virginia, reminding people to vote november 7th. hey, bill, i have a quote for you on the virginia race and politics at large. this is from "the new york times." with former president donald trump out of office, congressional democrats in a bitter standoff and virginia democrats have claimed every political prize, mr. mcauliffe is straining to liberate the voters in his

abortion ban in texas. this is democracy now, democracynow.org, the war and peace report. i'm amy goodman. thousands marched saturday in more than 600 demonstrations across the united states to send the message, “bans off our bodies.” this year alone, more than 600 are enacted. they were sparked in part by a near total ban on abortions that went into effect in texas on september 1st. the law bans abortions after about six weeks, before most people know they are pregnant. this is “top chef” host and author padma lakshmi addressing a mass in women's march for abortion rights in houston, texas. >> they will not even allow abortion in cases of rape or incensed. -- incest. have you experienced rape or sexual violence, governor abbott? i hope not. but i have. multiple times. and i'm sure many people here today have, too. when i was 16, the only saving grace was that i did not become pregnant. when asked if it was reasonable to tell a rape victim they cannot get an abortion, they said, don't worry about it

abortion law in texas, the state of texas has now filed an appeal to the judge's order. the judge's order, judge robert pittman has ordered an injunction that prevents that new texas abortion law from being enforced in the state of texas. in his 113-page opinion and order released tonight, judge robert pittman says from the moment s.b. 8 went into effect, women have been unlawfully prevented from exercising control over their lives in ways that are protected by the constitution. that other courts may find a way to avoid this conclusion is theirs to decide. this court will not sanction one more day of this offensive deprivation of such an important right. leading off our discussion tonight in this segment is democratic senator chris van hollen of maryland, he's a member of the senate appropriations committee and the senate budget committee. senator, i want to get your reaction to this ruling by judge pittman, judge pittman is a president obama appointee to the federal court, a district judge in texas saying this law in texas denies women an established constitutional righ

texas, as you, know earlier this year, passed a law that effectively banned in texas. the conservative, republican appointed majority of the united states supreme court, amazingly, let the texas abortion ban go into effect. even though there's a ruling called roe v. wade that supposedly is standing president that block states from banning abortion. the united states supreme court, despite that, let the texas abortion ban go into effect last month. the biden administration, the justice department under u.s. journey general under merrick garland, sued texas in federal court. asking a judge to step in and block implementation of the texas abortion ban. well it's cases served in court. two nights ago a federal judge in texas just that. block the ban. which has meant that for the past two days or so, the texas abortion ban has been suspended. and texas and women could, once again, at least theoretically, get an abortion in that. state but as of tonight, friday night, we are watching that ultraconservative, ideologically uniform far-right federal peels court because, tonight

and i don't think it was lost in texas. i don't think it was in jeopardy of being lost in texas. >> why do you have to restore confidence in an election that you're saying went well, that you're saying was free and fair? the only reason you would do that is because people are being gaslit. >> i think we do need to acknowledge in the political zeitgeist that exists right now, that is hanging over like a cloud. >> it's a pure theft. >> a zeitgeist perpetrated by the former president and his allies. >> we had a rigged election. we had a stolen election. >> the bigger picture is beyond donald trump. it is the changing demographics of the country. >> and the only tactic that they have left is to try to shrink the electorate and make it harder for black, brown, and young voters to participate. >> there's no question in your mind that that's what they're doing right now? >> i don't think there's any question in their mind. they're not hiding the fact that this is what they're doing. they're pretty out in the open, shouting the qui

you're in texas. give me your reaction to this mandate from the governor, or lack thereof, i should say. and how private businesses, for instance, dr. hotez can conceivably get and this mandate if in fact they want to? >> yeah, it's a very tough situation, yasmin, we've only got half the state vaccinated. and an extremely high level of transmission. yes, it's coming down but there's so many unvaccinated people in the state it's most likely to start going back up, create a fifth wave starting around the holidays. and the only way we can halt that is to get everybody vaccinated. and the bar is high because of this delta variant. we're looking to have pretty much all of the adults and adolescents vaccinated. mandates are a tool help us get there. we have to look at the consequences. take a step back. we have lost close to 70,000 lives here in texas. and we're about, in the next few weeks, we're likely going to eclipse california as the worst affected state in the nation. we're probably looking at 80,000

in texas, they reported more than 14,000 rapes in the state of texas. most experts believe the actual number far surpasses the number of reported rapes. do you believe that after a fetal preppy is detected, there should be any exception for rate or in zest -- rape or incest? >> i think a woman has adequate time -- >> after the fetal department -- fetal heartbeat has been ascertained under the statute, it appears you don't believe there should be an exception for rape or incest. that goes directly contrary to what donald trump said, he said i am strongly pro-life with three exceptions, raped, incest, protection of the health of the mother. ronald reagan said texas will work tirelessly to make sure we eliminate all raped. you don't believe sb8 is going to result in the elimination of rape in texas, are you? >> of course not. >> madam chair, his time is expired. >> give me an answer. >> the heartbeat indicates an independent human life. as a pro-life physician, who advocates for the fetus as well as the mother, that is he that human life should be allowed

the texas senator bryan hughes _ sexual abuse, or incest. the texas senator bryan hughes is _ sexual abuse, or incest. the texas senator bryan hughes is the i sexual abuse, or incest. the texas| senator bryan hughes is the author of this bill. at the time he was passed, —— as pastor gave the bbc his argument as to why no exemptions were provided. the his argument as to why no exemptions were provided-— were provided. the rapist needs to be punished. _ were provided. the rapist needs to be punished. no — were provided. the rapist needs to be punished, no question - were provided. the rapist needs to be punished, no question about i were provided. the rapist needs to i be punished, no question about that, we have _ be punished, no question about that, we have strong laws in texas to punish — we have strong laws in texas to punish those rapist. we have talked women _ punish those rapist. we have talked women in _ punish those rapist. we have talked women in those situations. we wouldn't — women in those situations. we wouldn't punis

she had spent the last five years running elections in a different texas county in that different texas county she had been universally praised by that county's leaders. i mean by all accounts, hood county made a really good choice when they picked somebody to come in and be the sort of technocrat, the nonpartisan official who would administer their elections. and in fact, when it came time for the presidential election in november of last year, november 2020, things went off absolutely without a hitch. in hood county. now i should mention that hood county is really, really conservative. it is really republican. to prove my point, these were the results in hood county from the november election. donald trump won 81% of the vote there. he beat joe biden by 64 points. i mean, keep in mind, over the entire state of texas, donald trump's margin of victory was six points. in hood county, it was 64 points. absolute landslide by any measure. and so, if you were a trump supporter who fervently believes what trump says, which is that the 2020 election was stolen from him, you might be mad about

we have just learned that a federal judge in texas has blocked the texas abortion ban. this is the texas abortion ban that bans abortions in that state after six weeks. that is way before most women even know that they are pregnant. that texas abortion ban effectively renders the protected afforded by roe v. wade obsolete. the united states supreme court allowed that law to go into effect after texas governor greg abbott signed it into law and the supreme court allowed it to go into effect. the u.s. justice department sued the state of texas. they asked for an emergency motion to stop the implementation of the law. tonight a federal judge in texas has blocked the ban and has granted the justice department's request for a preliminary injunction, saying in part, quote, from the moment sb 8 went into effect, women have been unlawfully prevented from exercising control over their lives in ways that are protected by the constitution. that other courts may find a way to avoid this conclusion is theirs to decide. this court will not sanction one more day of this offensive depr

you think about the texas republican party was really only became the dominant party of texas, you know, back in 2004. and in the 16 years since then, 17 years since then the party has been taken out of monopoly status here. and yet it seems to see that status is imperilled by the rise of increasingly non-white pop ulation here, that demographic change. you look at the way a lot of democrats ran better in 2020 than they had in a long time, and there was a period some people thought there was some slim hope joe biden might carry the state. and you can see texas republicans say we can see the end of the road here, so they're trying to ram through as much extreme legislation as possible in as quick a period of time as possible. and the effect of that as matthew dowd's entry suggests is this race for 2022 for lieutenant governor is going to be nationalized in a way that no state race has ever been before in terms of money and media attention. this really is the place that's the short end of the spear for the trump revolution. and that has made this a place where the intensity on the ground

here's what's also been happening in texas. i'm still registered in texas in dallas county. the republicans have been getting crushed in the suburbs. they have been losing harris county, dallas county, bayer county, travis county one of the few largest counties where they still have powers is tarrant county. white folks have stopped supporting it so what they have to do is they have to protect their incumbents and that's why you're seeing them distribute these maps this way, but the other thing is here, there is a silver lining in north carolina when the republican party did the exact same thing the naacp and people's campaign and others sued them over racial gerrymandering. they were successful in getting that knocked back. the problem is this here. elections matter. donald trump put 25% of the judiciary on the bern and you have more right-wing judges who don't care about voting rights and this is why i need earn to understand why voting matters. those who ignore the presidential race, this is what happens when you put federal judges who do not care about racial gerrymander

the ste of texas is appealing. whole women's health tells the newshour it is making plans to resume abortion care for women up to 18 weeks pregnant as soon as possible. >> we opened our schedule to expand beyond that six-week limit in our texas clinics, already. >> reporter: advocates for women's right to choose are holding their breath during what may be only a temporary reprieve. how do you think things would have been different for you if you had been unable to terminate your pregnancy? >> i >> i know almost for a fact that i would not have become the first person in my family to graduate from college, that i would not be in law school right now. and i would probably not have met my husband and on the verge of starting a family of my own on my, on my own terms. >> sy: instead, for millions of texas women of child bearing age, the terms will be set by how the next court, and likely, eventually the supreme court, interprets sb 8. for the pbs newshour, i'm stephanie sy in austin. >> woodruff: the country's overall

tribune of the albany times union to talk about the redistricting process for the house race in texas andn new york. >> currently there are 334 million people living in the united states according to the 2020 census figures to senators for each day and 435 members of congress. that 435 number is set by law since 1929. now with the new figures out it takes into account the population growth in the united states and geographical and demographic changes as well every ten year congressional redistricting hewill start the new districts will be in place for the 2022 midyear election. some states have lost members of congress new york and pennsylvania are two while some like texas and florida gained new members. so and with the could political report, would you look at the census figures and redistricting? which political party would benefit the most quick. >> we have to wait to find out the census shows a country that is getting more diverse and urban, 52 percent say they lost population between 2010 and 2020 so rural america compared to the cities and suburbs. that's good news for democrat
