<p>On today's "In the News" roundtable, Brian Becker, Esther Iverem,&nbsp;Nicole Roussell and Walter Smolarek discuss how a Texas law has &nbsp;destroyed abortion rights for 16 million women and girls and is being &nbsp;used by right-wing political forces as a model for the rest of the &nbsp;country -- but a new fightback movement is taking shape.
