November 7, 2007 presentation by Ellie Williams for the Stanford School of Medicine Medcast lecture series.

This burden on women in the reproductive years suggests a powerful link between female hormones and brain function. Ellie Williams, MD, associate director of the Center for Neuroscience in Women’s Health, discusses this role of hormones in women’s mental health.

Cecile Richards on John McCain
“Hardball with Chris Matthews” 05:17pm
Interview

TRANSCRIPT:
CECILE RICHARDS: I think it was an incredibly telling moment. [] the law of the land under the Supreme Court, as you say. I think it showed a complete lack of regard for womens health, for mothers health, and it really followed on his entire career in Congress. 26 years in Congress, hes voted against womens health 125 times, including very basic issues like affordable birth control, support for family planning, and even when he was asked by a reporter, couldnt say whether or not he supported insurance coverage for birth control, even though he voted against it twice. I think this really was simply in keeping with John McCains record as being very out of touch on womens health issues.

[]

There is a protection for womens health and life, and thats been under the Supreme Court, its been the law of the land for decades now, and thats what I think Senator McCain was questioning. But I think the real point [], the American people, this is a divisive issue, its a very personal, private issue. And what really the American people want to see is a focus on getting to the root of the problem in this country, which is we have the highest unintended pregnancy rate, and teen pregnancy rate in the Westernized industrialized world, theres so much we could do to come together to support affordable family planning, to support information for young people, to support insurance coverage for birth control. Those are the kinds of things that could reduce unintended pregnancy, and the need for abortion. John McCain has opposed every single one of them his entire career [].
