The Trump administration rolls back an Obama-era birth control access policy.
President Donald Trump's administration announced Friday that employers will now be able to choose not to offer free birth control options to employees on the grounds of religious or moral reasons. The panelists also discussed the president's visit to Puerto Rico, where 90 percent of residents still don't have power after Hurricane Maria struck the island late last month.
