Senator Catherine Cortez Masto Discusses Abortion Rights and Question 6 in Nevada Podcast
U.S. Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.), the first Latina elected to the U.S. Senate, participated in a podcast discussion titled 'My Body. My Pod.' with Mini Timmaraju, President and CEO of Reproductive Freedom for All. The conversation, recorded live from Reno, Nevada, focused on abortion rights, specifically addressing Question 6, which is returning to the ballot in 2026. Nevada is characterized as a politically competitive 'purple state' where voters do not fit neatly into partisan categories. Despite this, reproductive freedom protections have consistently garnered broad support from voters whenever they have been on the ballot. The discussion highlighted Nevada's unique political landscape and what its repeated support for abortion rights can indicate about the broader state of reproductive freedom in the United States.
