EXCERPT:
SCOTT: "And when you have the second most powerful woman in all of the government, Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen, walk into a banking hearing to talk about labor force participation rates, and she says that poor black women will have a better labor force participation rate if they have an abortion — " BECK: "Oh my gosh." SCOTT: " — as a kid who’s raised in poverty by a single black woman, I ran down to the Banking Committee and I asked her, I knew I misheard her, and she repeated it. When you have some of the most powerful voices in our country suggesting that abortion isn't even a decision you grapple with, but is a decision that helps your labor force participation, with tears welling in my eyes and anger in my voice, I thanked God Almighty that my mother chose life.”
