Veteran journalist Dan Rather is warning that legislation that Trump is trying to push through threatens women's right to vote.
In a recent piece titled "The War on Women," Rather tried to lay out how the Trump administration is going after women's rights.
"Trump's campaign promise to protect women, 'whether the women like it or not,' has become more of a threat," Rather wrote. "His policies and executive orders undermine women's economic and reproductive freedoms while pushing them out of the workforce and into the home."
However, Rather turns his attention particularly to the SAVE Act, a voter eligibility bill that Trump is trying to push through the Senate.
"The SAVE Act is a voter suppression bill that would disproportionately disenfranchise women," Rather warned. "Eligible voters would be barred from registering to vote if their legal last name does not match their birth certificate."
According to Rather's piece, "millions of women change their last name when they marry. A Pew Research study found that 79 percent of women take their husband's name and 5 percent hyphenate their last names."
"The MAGA wing of the Republican Party is hellbent on keeping power, even after Trump, their founder and standard-bearer, has gone," Rather wrote. "To do so, they need to stem the tide of defectors from the Trump camp, starting with Gen Z women, the most anti-Trump demographic."
Rather also pointed to Trump's efforts to "defund Planned Parenthood, saying it only provides abortions," and added that "Trump's Department of Labor has targeted programs that help women attain high-paying jobs in male-dominated fields."
He continued by mentioning that Trump's "Department of Defense has killed programs expanding women's roles in the military. And the Department of Health and Human Services is actively emphasizing 'natural family planning,' while eschewing medical birth control."
