Petition to stop the Blunt Amendment from passing (x-post in Women's Rights and Issues)
https://secure.aclu.org/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=4085&s_subsrc=120214_Blunt_fb_arThe Blunt Amendment would allow any employer--even someone who runs a manufacturing plant or restaurant--to refuse to cover any health care service it objects to, that would otherwise be required by health care reform. Same goes for an insurance company, which could refuse to include these services in the products it sells to its clients. This amendment would not just roll back access to birth control; it would also undermine one of the Affordable Care Act's most fundamental purposes: ensuring that all health insurance plans cover basic health services.
This should not be allowed to pass...
