During last night's Weekend Update segment on Saturday Night Live, Leslie Jones stopped by to comment on Alabama passing an abortion ban in an effort to overturn Roe v. Wade.

"Next thing you know, I'm in Starbucks, and they won't take my credit card because I'm a woman instead of the regular reason, which is I don't have no money on it," she said. "What made me so mad was seeing the 25 Alabama senators who voted for the abortion ban. Throw that picture up. Mm-hmm. Look at them. All men."
