SENATE? ARIZONA. CONGRESSMAN GAL GALLEGO ON THIS IMPORTANT NIGHT. YOU ARE DEALING WITH AN OPPONENT WHO HAS CHANGED HER POSITION ON THIS VERY LAW, WHICH SHE ONCE SAID SHE WAS INCREDIBLY THRILLED THAT THAT LAW WAS GOING TO GO INTO EFFECT. >> RIGHT. WELL, SHE CHANGED HER OPINION BUT IT DOESN'T MAKE THE DANGER LESS TO THE WOMEN OF ARIZONA. RIGHT NOW IN 2024 THE WOMEN OF ARIZONA HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS AS THE WOMEN IN ARIZONA OF 1864. JUST THINK ABOUT THAT. MY DAUGHTER, MY NINE MONTH DAUGHTER HAS LESS RIGHTS THAN MY WIFE DID GROWING UP THAN MY SISTERS AND MY MOM. AND YOU HAVE FLIP-FLOPPERS LIKE KARI LAKE WHO WANT TO SAY WHATEVER THEY CAN TO GET POWER. AND THEY EXPECT US TO TRUST THEM ONCE THEY GET IN THERE THEY ARE NOT GOING TO PUT AN ABORTION BAN IN AND DO EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO PROTECT THE RIGHTS THAT WE ALREADY HAVE. STILL LEFT FOR PEOPLE AND WOMEN IN ARIZONA. SO THIS IS A HORRIBLE SITUATION. I'VE BEEN GETTING CALLS ALL DAY FROM PEOPLE IN ARIZONA WOMEN IN ARIZONA WHO JUST FEEL LIKE THEY HAVE BEEN ATTACKED AND THEY HAVE BEEN. POLITICIANS LIKE KARI LAKE HAVE PUT THIS STATE IN DANGER PUT THE HEALTH OF WOMEN IN DANGER FOR POWER AND NOW THEY ARE TRYING TO RUN AWAY FROM IT. BUT, YOU KNOW, IT'S TIME TO PAY THE TOLL. AND THEY ARE GOING TO PAY FOR IT IN NOVEMBER. >> OF COURSE, KARI LAKE DID NOT SAY WHAT HER NEW POSITION ON ABORTION ACTUALLY IS OR WHAT THE NEW POLICY SHOULD BE. SHE WANTS GOVERNOR KATIE HOBBS AND THE LEGISLATURE TO DECIDE THAT FOR HER. SHE APPARENTLY HAS NO SUGGESTIONS ABOUT IT. LET'S LISTEN TO SOMETHING MORE SHE SAID ABOUT THIS LAW TWO YEARS AGO IN 2022 WHEN SHE ALSO SAID SHE DOES NOT BELIEVE IN ABORTION. LET'S LISTEN TO THIS. >> I DON'T BELIEVE IN ABORTION. I THINK THE OLDER LAW IS GOING TO TAKE -- IS GOING TO GO INTO EFFECT THAT IS WHAT I BELIEVE WILL HAPPEN. I DON'T THINK ABORTION PILLS SHOULD BE LEGAL. >> THAT SEEMS VERY CLEAR CONGRESSMAN GALLEGO AND TONIGHT SHE SEEMS TO BE AFRAID OF WHAT SHE HAS SAID IN THE PAST. >> SHE IS LYING, LAWRENCE. IN OTHER INSTANCES SHE SAID IT'S CALLED A GREAT LAW AND OTHER TIMES SHE CITED BY THE ACTUAL STATUTE NUMBER THAT LAW THAT BASICALLY OUT RIGHT BANS ABORTION AND CRIMINALIZES PROVIDERS LIKE DOCTORS AND NURSES AND NOW SHE IS TRYING TO RUN AWAY FROM IT. HOW CAN WE TRUST SOMEONE LIKE THIS? HOW CAN WE TRUST SOMEONE WHO CELEBRATED THE LAW WHEN IT PASSED. CELEBRATED TAKING THE RIGHT OF A WOMAN TO CONTROL HER BODY. THE RIGHT OF A FAMILY TO MAKE THESE VERY HARD DECISIONS WITH THEIR DOCTOR AND NOW WE'RE SUPPOSED TO TRUST THEM? ABSOLUTELY NOT. ARIZONA IS GOING TO STOP KARI LAKE. ARIZONA IS GOING TO STOP THESE RADICAL EXTREMISTS TRYING TO TAKE AWAY WOMEN'S RIGHTS. WE ARE GOING TO WIN IN NOVEMBER BY PASSING AN ABORTION RIGHTS INITIATIVE. WE ARE GOING TO WIN BY STOPPING KARI LAKE. I HOPE YOU WILL ALL JOIN US AND MAKE SURE THAT HAPPENS BY SUPPORTING PLANNED PARENTHOOD AND THE ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE OUT THERE BY SUPPORTING POLITICIANS THAT WANT TO STOP THESE EXTREMISTS. HOPEFULLY YOU WILL SUPPORT ME FOR ARIZONA. WE ARE GOING TO TURN THIS CLOCK AROUND AND MAKE SURE THAT THEY UNDERSTAND YOU WILL NOT MESS WITH WOMEN'S RIGHTS, ESPECIALLY NOT IN ARIZONA. >> AND, OF COURSE, A REPUBLICAN SENATOR FROM ARIZONA KARI LAKE IF SHE WERE TO BE SENATOR WOULD BE VOTING FOR ANY REPUBLICAN NOMINATED JUDGES IF DONALD TRUMP WERE BACK IN THE WHITE HOUSE SHE WOULD BE VOTING FOR EVERYONE OF THOSE JUDGES WHO CREATED THIS SITUATION IN ARIZONA TONIGHT? >> ABSOLUTELY. JUDGES, WE ARE NOT TALKING JUST JUDGES WHAT ABOUT WHAT HAPPENS WITH ABORTION PILLS? SHE STATED SHE HASN'T CHANGED THE POSITION SHE WANTS TO OUT RIGHT BAN ABORTION PILLS. SHE HAS LIED TO THE WOMEN OF ARIZONA SHE IS GOING TO CONTINUE ALL SHE CARES ABOUT IS POWER. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT SHE HAS TO SAY ON WHO SHE HAS TO LIE TO IF SHE HAS TO THROW WOMEN'S HEALTH UNDER THE BUS SHE WILL DO IT. AND SHE WILL LIE. AND SHE WILL DO WHATEVER SHE CAN TO CONTINUE HER RADICAL AGENDA. WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO PUSHBACK. WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO RIGHT NOW TO STOP. LET'S NOT LET OUR FOOT OFF THE GAS. WE CAN WIN THIS. WE CAN SEND A MESSAGE ACROSS THE COUNTRY. ARIZONA THE STATE IS A PRO ABORTION STATE AND WHEN WE VOTE FOR PRO ABORTION POLITICIANS, IN NOVEMBER, AND PASS A PRO ABORTION INITIATIVE, SHE WILL LOSE AND THAT WILL SEND A MESSAGE TO THE REST OF
