Planned Parenthood Advocate’s Joella Striebel on Wisconsin’s latest reproductive health and rights
Joella Striebel, the public affairs regional coordinator for Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin, in the WIZM studio Wednesday for La Crosse Talk PM on reproductive health, how to talk about it, a sex education bill, the abortion debate and free condoms.
La Crosse Talk PM airs weekdays at 5:06 p.m. Listen on the WIZM app, online here, or on 92.3 FM / 1410 AM / 106.7 FM (north of Onalaska). Find all the podcasts here or subscribe to La Crosse Talk PM wherever you get your podcasts.
Striebel, last week, organized a Gov. Tony Evers’ roundtable discussion with UW-Eau Clarie students last week. So Striebel recapped some of the things Evers discussed and what students had to say about reproductive health.
We also talked about the ongoing fight in Wisconsin over abortion access, as the Legislature debated last week imposing a 14-week abortion ban. That included this state Legislator comparing women to animals.
Currently the law is 20 weeks, but that only came after a court fight that struck down the state’s 175-year-old abortion ban.
Also, other news happening in Madison, we talked about a sex education bill proposed called the Healthy Youth Act.
Began the show hitting on the abortion debate in general and how front and center it always seems to be in and some of the misconceptions of Planned Parenthood. That led into what Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin is about.

Everyone needs to see the movie called “Unplanned.” Then tell me that planned parenthood is all about reproductive issues.
Abort young children sell parts or dispose in the garbage. How barbaric. Forgive them Father.
I wouldn’t let this lady be my spokesperson for a tattoo parlor. Listened to Rick yesterday for the last 10 mins of his show on the drive home. Either he plays or dumb or really is. He must read the Tribune before coming in and takes it as gospel.

Carol,
This is a hard truth for that you speak even for us democrats. I could never see my party’s explanation that abortion is considered an essential part of sexual and reproductive health care.
In every other facet of our lives we are taught to be pro-active vs. reactive. Pro actively birth control measures should be considered.

The (unsaid) good news is that so-called Planned Parenthood is eliminating over 100 paid positions from its midwest organization, apparently due to declining numbers of profitable abortions.
PP is after all, a business and a democratic lobbying group, and has bills to pay and politicians to corrupt.
