I believe you. I used to work with a JW woman (decades ago), and around the holidays, she would bring in plates of home baked cookies. Someone asked her about it and she said, “I don’t do Christmas. I do cookies.” She was a sweet lady.
The point is that no one should have to JUSTIFY why they need birth control.
Because not everyone has an array of options on jobs? Because sometimes it is literally the only job you can get after six months of looking? Because you need to feed your family and it’s the best and only option you have?
Same here. When I about 10 I bled for 6 months strait and had to get on Birth Control to regulate my period which took about another year to get sorted out after trying several different medications.... also passed out a few times through the years due to anemia related issues that resulted from my bodily…
I’ve made this exact argument with the wife of a Hobby Lobby store manager that I know on FB. Her response? Absolutely, they should be able to cut whatever they want. Because everyone has a choice to work there or not, and they know what will be offered in healthcare before they take the job.
Also, Judaism explicitly defines life as beginning at birth; I suspect we’re not the only religion to do so. I genuinely feel my religious freedom is trampled by having government use another religion’s definition of life to restrict my medical options.
No, because that also has nothing to do with the privacy rights in your own healthcare, and is not intrinsically discriminatory toward your female employees.
There would be verifiable harm to my employer if I went to work for a competitor while on vacation. There is no verifiable harm to them, and “our hearts bleed when sluts use birth control” is not a cause of action. You have to have fucking standing, and you have to prove actual damages. It’s grotesque to foist your…
“Fun” fact about this case: it doesn’t allow Jehovah’s Witnesses to refuse to cover blood transfusions. Contraception is the only “objectionable” medical service that can be denied.
A few weeks ago I went to see Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg speak at an event in DC. (Remind me to tell you sometime how I almost didn’t get in because of my empty bag, it was insane.)
Anyway, it was moderated by Nina Totenberg of NPR and she asked Justice Ginsburg about Gorsuch. The Notorious RBG paused for a long…
In terms of legal rights, there are two free-for-all contexts in America. One is immigration, and the other is incarceration.
This is way, way more sinister than that. Rallies provide Trump the opportunity to speak directly to supporters without the press acting as an intermediary (and the fact-checking that comes along with it). It’s part of the autocrat’s playbook.
Don’t forget what his trophy wife is costing us to stay in NY. And what it’s costing us for him to go to his resort in florida EVERY weekend.
The best was when the Republicans asked Comey if he had considered investigating Clinton’s ties to Russia. Because, you know, the FBI obviously never bothered spending 18 months investigating Clinton over accusations that specifically arose from Russian-directed sources.
The Republicans’ grasping to make this about leaks would have been hilarious had it not shown the disturbing lengths these fucks will go to to distract and defend Russia’s their puppet in the White House. They tried to paint this as an unwarranted invasion into a U.S. citizen’s private conversations. Except that…
This hearing really is worth watching.
I have a Syrian hamster and a Russian hamster. (Seriously, that where they each originated from.) OMG you would not believe how tense it has been in my home.
I experienced similar with ADHD (which I think is considered “on the spectrum”)
