00:00Women make up 51% of the U.S. population.
00:0345% of us identify as feminists.
00:0611% of us believe that abortion access is the most important issue.
00:10I think abortion access is extremely important.
00:13I care about women's reproductive rights.
00:15Be able to make decisions that we think are best for our lives.
00:19Making the decision to govern my own body and my right to do so.
00:22Access to health care is an innate right for everyone.
00:25In the past four years, 288 restrictive measures limiting access to abortions have been passed at the state level.
00:33That is insane to me. Insane.
00:35These rights that they're taking away under the guise of helping women is hurting them so much more.
00:41The majority of women who seek an abortion actually already have a child.
00:45They know what it takes and they know the kind of money and resources that go into it.
00:50And when they can't decide the timing and the spacing of their children, that really, really puts their earning potentials
00:56at risk.
00:57The people who might need access to safe and affordable health care are the least likely to get it.
01:03It feels like a lot of men in Congress working very hard to take away basic reproductive rights from women.
01:11I'm looking for a candidate that votes, you know, celebrating a woman's right to choose.
01:17I hope that every woman in this country has the ability to decide if she wants contraception.
01:23And if so, what type?
01:25Without politicians, without her employer, without religious leaders telling her what is or isn't good for her body.
01:32Why are you telling me that I can't make decisions with my body and with my future?
01:37It's 2016. I don't understand why that's still an issue or why we're still talking about it.
01:42Everybody in this country should be protected and taken care of.
01:47People used to be slaves. Women couldn't vote.
01:49There's a time and a place to amend things when it's not working out for people,
01:52and I don't understand why we can't talk about that.
