Al Franken actually said...

"I believe that women's health is fundamental to our country's health because women are the small business owners and entrepreneurs, they are the educators, doctors, and CEOs."

"This is simply immoral and unacceptable."

"health insurance companies discriminate against women solely on the basis of their gender."

"It is also unbelievable to me that, in this day and age, we allow insurance companies to charge women more for health insurance simply because of the fact that they may become pregnant."
