Senators, You Work For Us! Now Let’s Talk About Healthcare
Senators Roy Blunt and Mitch McConnell are proposing an amendment to the Affordable Health Care Act that would allow ANY employer to deny coverage for ANY treatment that the employer has a moral objection to. Not just employers that are religiously affiliated, but any employer. That means your boss could deny treatment for mental illness, HIV treatment, drug and alcohol treatment, pre-natal care for an unmarried woman or even say he has a moral objection to cervical cancer treatment because it is caused by HPV, which is transmitted sexually! Actually, it’s transmitted from men to women, yet the woman could be denied coverage.
What these fine gentlemen are forgetting is that they work for us! We are their employer! Now, gentlemen, let’s talk about your health care coverage. The insurance we provide for you covers everything! You don’t have to purchase this insurance, it is provided free of charge, for the rest of your life!
I’m sure I’m not alone in feeling that I have a moral objection to what you are trying to do to health care coverage. And I have a particularly strong moral objection to what you are trying to do to women when it comes to contraception!
