Joy Reid leas this episode of The ReidOut with a vote that puts Republicans on the record, actively harming their constituents by refusing to codify Roe v. Wade into law. On Wednesday, every single Republican senator voted against advancing the Women's Health Protection Act, which prohibits government restrictions on abortion. Sen. Patty Murray and Rep. Cori Bush join Joy Reid to discuss. Next, we analyze how, although it was Justice Samuel Alito who wrote the draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade, all eyes will be on Chief Justice John Roberts when the Supreme Court meets on Thursday for the first time since the draft leaked. Plus, former Attorney General Eric Holder joins us on his new book, and the danger America still faces in the wake of Jan. 6. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
