Allison Coffman, the executive director at Amplify Georgia Collaborative, Jen Slipakoff, a parent of a transgender child and member of the Human Rights Campaign National Board of Governors, and Chanel Haley, a transwoman and the director of Education & Community Engagement at Georgia Equality, discuss the privacy concerns they have for people seeking abortions and transgender care. This is following a recent letter from Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr and 18 other state attorneys general. They oppose a proposed Biden administration rule that would keep access to a patient’s out-of-state medical records private.

 

Republican Alabama Sen. Tommy Tuberville is accused of jeopardizing America’s national security by stalling promotions for hundreds of military personnel, as he protests what he calls the Pentagon’s abortion policy. Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh discusses the impact the situation is having on military readiness and Georgia’s military personnel.
