More like $100. Once government gets involved the decimal point floats a bit.

"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."

All that women need to do is to ask in job interviews if potential employer is willing to pay for the consequences of any activities that they engage in while not at work. If potential employer says no then scratch that employer off the list.

I do believe that the State of Washington could still require that insurance companies wishing to provide group health insurance in that state provide coverage of contraceptives for employees when the employer does not do so. The state could also set a limit on the premium charged.

Isn’t “Attorney General” an “Enforcement of law” position?

Isn’t the writing of laws reserved for Congress?

I’m in Washington and this guy is turning into a political activist in a position of law enforcement. I got an email from him, unsolicited, where he’s railing on and on about DACA and how “cruel” it is to people...

Not being provided contraceptives or abortion services is not bearing the burden of a religious belief. Since there is nothing to prevent a woman receiving those services of her own accord and wallet.

That’s 5-6 condoms a day. May be about right for the professionals.

Nobody is taking away access to birth control. Tired of the left lying on this issue.

The government forced a religion that believes abortion is a grave sub to condone that sin 8involuntarily. This IS a bbig fn deal.

Another good song.

Sleepy John Estes - “Drop Down Mama,” Verse 3, 1935:

Some of these women sure do make me tired
Got a handful of “Gimme”, a mouthful of “Much obliged”

Only women, and not men, may have their contraceptive coverage denied based on their employer’s 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.

Only women, not men, may benefit from having an employer pay for contraception. That violates the equal protection guarantee implicit in the Fifth Amendment. The only way to grant "equal protection" is to offer no coverage to either party. Pay for it yourself. It's not the responsibility of the taxpayers or fellow employees to subsidize your needs or wants.

I hope some State Employee files a lawsuit against hi state for not providing them with a Ho, House, car, Jet and tickets to the Sonics games. Oh yeah almost forgot Cigarettes and Free 45 ML.

This douchebag clearly fell and injured his brain.

In King County, they have virtue signalling contests before the elections, to see who’s the most liberal of them all.

There’s a local radio host who I don’t always agree with, but he’s pegged Ferguson as “Sideshow Bob” and he’s dead on the money. This clown is all grandstanding all the time.

You think the shock of Boeing setting up HQs hither and yon would have woken the area to the price of unfettered moonbattery, but the younger and more PC area cash cow, Amazon, has started the process of getting away from the consequences of the very policies that Amazon CEO and moonbat benefactor Bezos approves of.

Trump has set in motion several circular firing squads, and Bob Ferguson is bangin’ away with the best of them.
