For Immediate Release: November 7, 2018
In response to news of the Trump administration’s issuance of final regulations to allow employers to deny employees insurance coverage for contraception, NARAL Pro-Choice America Vice President Adrienne Kimmell issued the following statement:
“On the heels of an election that saw major pro-choice gains in governors’ mansions, the House of Representatives, and in state houses across the country, the Trump administration is throwing a bone to its anti-choice base in a disgraceful effort to roll back reproductive healthcare access for hundreds of thousands of Americans. This rule, which gives practically any employer a license to discriminate against their employees, reflects a backwards ideology, and one that women across the country last night made clear they will not stand for.”
