Women's Rights Group boycott UN event over Trump policies

The Commission on the Status of Women is underway at the United
Nations, and it's a chance for NGOs and women's rights advocates to
discuss ways of achieving global gender equality.

While the two-week event provides a platform for groups from around
the world to make their voices heard, some organizations have turned
down the invitation to participate.

They say it's a show of solidarity for those impacted by U.S.
President Donald Trump's so-called travel ban. William Denselow
reports from U.N. headquarters in New York.
