Discussion on Health Care Reform
So after our discussion in class to read up about Obama health care reform about including contraceptive for woman in their health care plans. Obama in February helped make his new health care reforms an issue for women by announcing that church-affiliated organizations, including hospitals, schools and charities, would have to pay for birth control under employee health plans even if the use of contraceptives violates their religious beliefs. Republicans denounced the order as a violation of religious liberty and Obama softened the requirement, but his campaign shot back that Republicans had declared a "war on women." The republican party has been outraged by Obama stand whit planned parenthood, supporting these new additions to our current health care plan. After seeing the news coverage of this event along with Rush Limbaugh it seems that Republican supporters along with Representatives in congress want nothing to do with Sandra Fluke or her new health care reforms. I feel Rush Limbaugh comments were extremely derogatory and I feel that if the reforms save money for taxpayers then I'm all for it.
