REPUBLICAN WAR ON WOMEN CONTINUES. Missouri House Passes A Bill Allowing Medical Professionals To Deny Women’s Access To Contraception

But as opponents of the measure point out, there is more at stake than religious convictions for doctors or pharmacists:

Most of the opposition in the House came from Democratic
lawmakers representing districts near St. Louis and Kansas City who
argued the legislation would inhibit access to health care for some
Missourians. Several opponents said it seemed the measure was aimed
particularly at birth control.

Rep. Stacey Newman, D-St. Louis, said the medical procedures at issue
in the legislation would affect women most directly. Speaking with a
male opponent of the measure, Newman said, “You will be putting
your stamp on what you think I should be doing and also deciding if your
religious beliefs will supersede my religious beliefs and my moral
convictions.”

This bill now goes to the state Senate for consideration before the Missouri legislative session ends on Friday.

Missouri is not the only state to consider this kind of bill. On
Tuesday, Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback (R) signed a similar bill allowing
pharmacists to refuse to fill
a prescription that they think could be used to induce an abortion.
Opponents claim the law is broad enough that it could allow pharmacists
to deny birth control or emergency contraception, or even procedures
like chemotherapy if they would put a pregnancy at risk.

The repuglicans will never stop their WAR ON WOMEN until they take every fucking right away from them. The old white men are so afraid, they heard there are more minorities being born, they are angry white men, afraid they will lose absolute control so they have to control their women, too.
