WASHINGTON, DC — Tomorrow, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in Trump v. Pennsylvania, a challenge to the Trump administration’s rules that would allow virtually any employer or university to declare itself exempt from the Affordable Care Act’s landmark requirement that health insurers cover birth control without co-pays. NARAL Pro-Choice America President Ilyse Hogue released the following statement:
“The Trump administration’s push to undermine this essential part of the Affordable Care Act could rob countless people across this country of their dignity and ability to determine their own futures. These reckless attacks on birth control access are nothing more than another shameless effort by the radical right to advance their agenda of power and control, no matter the cost to women and families. Every body deserves birth control coverage, and your boss or school shouldn’t be allowed to interfere with what kind of coverage you can get.
The Trump administration’s rules put ideology above our health and well-being — and thanks to Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation to the Supreme Court, even access to birth control is on the chopping block thanks to a fringe political agenda. We will never stop working to hold accountable all politicians who enabled Trump and his dangerous attacks on reproductive freedom—including the senators who greenlit Kavanaugh’s confirmation.”
