North Carolina's democratic governor vows to give women the most access possible following the state's new 12 week abortion ban, which takes effect July 1st. Meanwhile, Nebraska's legislature also passed a 12 week abortion ban and restrictions on gender affirming care for minors. North Carolina governor Roy Cooper had vetoed the legislation, but the states Republican led assembly voted to override that veto. We're going to make sure that this bill gets implemented in a way that we provide the most access possible to women. He also says the bill was contradictory, conflicting, confusing, and open to interpretation while not a compromise. This is in no way a reasonable compromise as Republicans have presented it. It's a compromise between the right wing and the radical right wing. Cooper made his comments on NBC's meet the press. I'm Julie Walker.
