Issues surrounding women and, in particular, reproductive rights have become a big issue in the US Presidential Election. With just a couple of weeks left until polling day, the Political Cyclists gather to discuss the impact this is having on the race, and are joined by Kelly Weil, a writer and author of the MomLeft newsletter. As Emily Tamkin and Kelly discuss the natalist movement, the comments of JD Vance and the lack of provision of affordable childcare, Tom Hamilton and Rohan Venkat add the international perspective from around the political cycle.
