For the first time in 10 years, another state has adopted "right to work" laws. Indiana makes number 23. We hear how a Republican governor changed his mind and what the political consequence might be nationwide. Will Indianapolis see protests during Super Bowl weekend?

Komen Foundation to withdraw support for Planned Parenthood?
