......Do you have HEALTH INSURANCE from your EMPLOYER???...The GOP wants to GIVE your EMPLOYER the POWER to decide which health services WORKING AMERICANS get,without a DIAGNOSIS,only with "MORAL OBJECTION"!!!......
"Blunt's proposal doesn't just apply to religious employers and birth control. Instead, it would allow ANY INSURER or EMPLOYER, religiously affiliated or otherwise, to opt out of providing any health care services required by federal law—everything from MATERNITY CARE to SCREENING for DIABETES. Employers wouldn't have to cite religious reasons for their decision; they could just say the treatment goes against their moral convictions. That exception could include almost ANYTHING—an employer could theoretically claim a "MORAL OBJECTION" to the cost of providing a given benefit. The bill would also allow employers to sue if state or federal regulators try to make them comply with the law.-Just like their CORPORATIONS
If Republican leaders get their way and Blunt's bill becomes law, a boss who regarded overweight people and smokers with moral disgust could exclude coverage of obesity and tobacco screening from his employees' health plans. A Scientologist employer could deny its employees depression screening because Scientologists believe psychiatry is morally objectionable. A management team that thought HIV victims brought the disease upon themselves could excise HIV screening from its employees' insurance coverage. Your boss' personal prejudices, not science or medical expertise, would determine which procedures your insurance would cover for you and your kids."
......Under the GOP PLAN, "OFF"course your BOSS can CONTROL your SEX LIFE!!!...Also from the article;
"A business could deny coverage for CERVICAL CANCER SCREENING for unmarried employees, out of opposition to premarital sex."
......Here is the SECTION of the BILL,for YOU "LEGAL BUFFS";

+1I retired from a school district 7 years ago and they are still paying for my health insurance. They will pay for it until I'm 65. I know how incredibly lucky I am to have this kind of insurance. I continue to pay (in my pension) $150 more a month additional so I can go to a doctor without going through a primary care physician. The district has increased the cost of health care, but I think I'm still getting a smoking deal. My health insurance won't be as good when I go on Medicare.reply
