Synopsis

On the 26 June 2013, Texas state senator Wendy Davis became an overnight political sensation and a hero to womens' rights supporters across the country. Davis stood and spoke on the floor of the state legislature for nearly 11 hours to run out the clock on a sweeping bill that aimed to close all but five abortion clinics in Texas. Now, Davis is making a serious run to become the first Democratic governor of Texas in nearly two decades. With her singular narrative and tremendously exciting political future, this is bound to be the political memoir of the year.
