Nancy Pelosi said the Supreme Court "slapped women in the face" after a draft opinion overturned the landmark abortion ruling.

This is about something very serious and very personal and disrespectful of women. Pelosi said in a CBS interview that the court has slapped women in the face for their judgments about the size and timing of their families.

It would be anti-precedent and anti-privacy to overturn the Supreme Court decision.

The Speaker of the House responded to comments from the governor of California.

Where is the Democratic Party? Where is the party? Why is this being called out? This is a coordinated effort. They are winning. We need to stand up. Last week, Newsom asked where the counteroffensive was.

Margaret Brennan asked Pelosi if she was sure why pro-abortion rights Democrats were outmaneuvered.

She said that they have been fighting against the Republicans for a woman's right to choose.

She said that the issue has become more politicized in modern American politics.

She said that they had been bipartisan early on, on support for a woman's right to choose. The science is the same. The court changed.

They are deciding that it will be different. I don't know why anyone would make that statement if they were unaware of the fight.

When Democrats controlled the House and Senate in 2009, they did not codify abortion rights into law.

We did not have a pro-choice Democratic Party in 2009. I had to fight against people who were against theAffordable Care Act because they were worried that it would allow more freedom of choice. She said that it really did not go down that path.
