Healthcare Refugees in America (Hour 1)
The attack on women’s reproductive rights by extremists on the US Supreme Court has created a new type of healthcare refugee—patients who can’t find providers in certain states ruled by right-wing politicians. We’ll discuss how Sen. Tammy Baldwin is introducing a bill to alleviate some of that travel burden. We’ll also review how the Supreme Court on Wednesday handled a case that could give legislatures unchecked power over elections in the future.

Also, what the MAGA folks in St. Croix County are proposing that could threaten public safety. Plus, Kristin Lyerly helps us review the Packers/Bears game, and Terry Bell discusses UW volleyball in the NCAA tournament.
