Republican members of the Missouri House shoot down a bill to re-fund contraception at county health clinics.
Why?
“If you hand out contraception to single women, we’re saying promiscuity is OK as a state, and I am not in support of that,” [Rep. Susan]Phillips, R-Kansas City, said in an interview.
I don’t want to hear anyone saying that they’re not just trying to punish women for having sex. This is contraception, not abortion.
