Despite the Senate Republicans, Wisconsin will abide by Hobby Lobby.
The state of Wisconsin will no longer be enforcing a state law requiring
employers to provide contraception coverage in insurance plans offered
to employees. A spokesman with the Office of the Commissioner of
Insurance told Media Trackers on Monday that because of the U.S. Supreme
Court decision in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc. in June, state regulators are no longer requiring employers or insurance providers to abide by the state requirement.
...In 2013, AB 216 and SB 202 attempted to add a religious exemption to the statute. Assembly Republicans passed their version of the reform but the bill subsequently died in the GOP-controlled Senate....
Seems like many Senate Republicans need a remedial primary or two.
Will the Wahabi Lobby ruling affect Viagra coverage? Aging males have a constitutional and religious right to procreate, too.
ReplyDeleteAhhh, trolls.
ReplyDeleteShow us the passage in the Constitution which ensures the right to procreate.
Be specific.
What's a right to procreate got to do with birth control anyway?
ReplyDeleteIn the Preamble, it specifically mentions posterity.

Sorry, zero. Zero.
ReplyDeleteMention of posterity does not establish a right to procreation.
In fact, I think that people such as you should be BANNED from procreation--but I don't have the right to establish that ban.
Dammit.
...but I'll clarify for you.
ReplyDeleteWhile "substantive" due process protects procreation, such protection does not extend to requiring tax support of drug enhancements, just as it does not force coverage of counter-procreation drugs.
