Senate Democrats seek to codify abortion rights into federal law
This week brings the first big test in the political fight over abortion rights. Senate Democrats will try to pass federal legislation guaranteeing the right to an abortion, an effort that will fail because they do not have the votes. The Boston Globe's Kimberly Atkins Stohr and The Washington Post's Lee Ann Caldwell join Geoff Bennett to discuss the politics of abortion.
