Like There's a 1849 law that, if it were in effect in Wisconsin, would criminalize just about all abortions in Wisconsin. Brad Schimmel has said there is nothing wrong with that law. He believes it should be in effect. Even though there's a case right in front of the Wisconsin Supreme Court right now. (05:47–05:57)
