01/21/2021 | Rewire | Imani Gandy and Jessica Mason Pieklo

This law-focused podcast discusses many of President Biden’s initial actions during his first day of presidency. While the Biden administration did not take any action in regards to abortion on his first day in office, there was some upset about how a question regarding Biden’s intentions to reverse the gag rule was handled at a press conference. The podcast’s hosts, Imani Gandy and Jessica Mason Pieklo, discuss this comment as well as some of our hopes for President Biden in the realm of abortion care [you can find the discussion around the 20:00 timestamp]. We highly recommend you listen to the entire thing though- it is a great [and exciting] recap of the day.
