Tom Price welcomes the chance to roll back birth control coverage
https://thinkprogress.org/tom-price-birth-control-coverage-a87009b7b418On Thursday morning, President Trump signed an executive order on religious freedom, which would both make it easier for faith leaders to preach politics, and for employers to claim a religious exemption against providing contraceptive health care coverage to their employees.
Your long ordeal will soon be over, Trump told the Little Sisters of the Poor, an order of nuns that objected to Obamacares mandate that all health insurance plans cover birth control without additional co-pays.
Price immediately released a press release saying he was pleased to have the opportunity to rethink the mandate.
Seriously, what assholes.

As someone wrote recently, they want to punish women for the 'sin' of engaging in sexual intercourse. Simple as that.
