“Last week, the Trump administration rolled back contraceptive care for hundreds of thousands of women. They called it a victory for religious liberty. But let's be real. This is just one part of the White House's fight to strip women of their independence and healthcare. First, they came for title X, scaling back the essential family planning centers that served low-income women. They attacked Planned Parenthood, pledging to block access for the millions of women who depend on it. They expanded the global gag rule, a policy that will limit the preventative healthcare options for women across the world. Then, they turned their destructive sights on title IX, scaling back crucial guidances that protect sexual assault victims on our college campuses. Now, they have opened the door for bosses to deny contraceptive coverage for their female employees. Let's not pretend this is a victory for religious freedom. This is about taking away women's choices. ____________________”
