The Trump Administrations contraception rules violate two constitutional provisions the First and Fifth Amendments.
The rules violate the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment by requiring individuals to bear the burdens of religions to which they do not belong. For example, the rules permit a for-profit business to impose the costs of its owners anti-contraception beliefs on employees who do not share those beliefs.
Only women, and not men, may have their contraceptive coverage denied based on their employers religious or moral objection. By making a gender-based distinction without sufficient justification, the rules violate the equal protection guarantee implicit in the Fifth Amendment.
Hmm?,I don't like my employer not paying for my beer.
Here's an old song I like;)
In the first place, this was such mindless pandering.
It was mind numbing dumb.
While I’m sure it garnered the Dike Feminist Lobby, I’ll bet it caused a lot of people to simply groan and shake their head.
Yet another privileged class...
Abortion is NOT contraception.
What do you call a lawyer at the bottom of the lake?
All these suits are to raise his value in the eyes of the King County voters (all of whom are card carrying socialists and have the virtual majority vote over the rest of the state)
Our present idiot, I mean Governor, is term limited.
Naturally, the 9th Circus steps up to insist on insanity.
A good start???
Are these people STUPID???
They are NOT being denied access,they are being denied payment by a few insurers or employers.
The can have all of the birth control that they want.
This Ferguson should be ashamed of himself.

So the Constitution requires employers to pay for birth control, but nobody figured that out for over 200 years. Amazing ...
He’s just a craven politician pandering for votes. He could not care less for true justice and true human rights. He’s a bum and a bully, and an frenzied rabid enabler of those who will beat to death the last remaining shreds of Righteousness and the Judeo-Christian Sex Ethic that brought us the overwhelming blessings that we have enjoyed. His end will not be a good one. Let us pray that his blindness is cured.
“undermining” means free paid by my taxes.
>>Progress found that contraception costs can generally exceed $1,000 a year without insurance coverage.<<
Where were these easy broads when I was in college??
If I was “smart” I would have signed up for “SlutzOPlenty” when I was in college!
We need a legal definition of access. Word smithies run amuck.
Translation: Ferguson wants to make sure that YOU keep paying for THEIR boinking.
Why don’t conservatives get smart and make complaints in Texas for everything Trump does and when it gets shot down it’ll create a precedent? These things keep starting in Seattle and Califronia and Washington. Bogus! Pure usurping of power for the Judicial branch
"The birth control pill, patch, and ring usually cost about $20$50 per month. The birth control shot costs about $30$75 per shot. The shot protects against pregnancy for 12 weeks.
Some health care providers require that women have exams before theyre prescribed hormonal birth control, and others do not. If needed, an exam usually costs about $35$250.
Many Planned Parenthood health centers offer reduced-fee services to teens with little or no income."
What sick twisted logic communist have. Worship Sanger instead of Jesus.
Pass the XXVIII Amendment stating birth control is inalienable right
Good luck with that.
$1,000 per year for preventative contraception? Not buying it.
How does this undermine “women’s access”?
It’s been a while since I bought rubbers, but you can buy a 100 Trojans Pleasure Pak on Amazon for the cost of two beers. A month of Ortho-Tricyclen (temporary chemical sterilization for females) costs $37.
How much freakin’ access are the taxpayers supposed to provide?
