The Debate on the Contraception Issue

This issue of contraception has been in the news recently and has become a battle ground between the GOP and the Democrats. The debarred from the Democratic left is that all employers should be required to provide contraception as an option on their employees health care coverage while the Republicans on the (far) right argue that if an employer religious beliefs are against contraception they should be able to deny that coverage.

Originally the Obama administration had some exemptions for churches, but the exemptions did not extend to catholic run hospitals and schools. The President came out and stated those institutions would no longer have to pay for the coverage, passing on the responsibility to the actual insurance companies. The coverage would still be there for employees working for religious-based employers and the employer is no longer responsible for footing the bill.

It was a compromise that the President was quick and willing to make seeing the merits in the argument. Many catholic groups are satisfied with the resolution, but some are still fighting to be fully exempted. This is where the President has drawn the line. This falls as an option to the employee whether they wish to take d since the employers no longer need torry about paying for it they should let it go.

The right has tried to frame this argument as an attack on religion, but in reality this is there attack on birth control. A fight they lost long ago and continue to fight on. The compromise on the exemptions no longer makes it a religion issue.

Most Catholic women are in favor of birth control but with the improving economy the GOP needs something to attack President Obama on. While I can understand the reasoning behind the attack I just do not understand the grounds they have chosen to fight on. This will be a bad look for the republicans who have the battle iq of George Washington. Washington was known as a bad combat general.

Contraception has taken root in the society and with the importance of our fertility rate, the more access to these options the better. We will see how far the GOP thinks they can drag this. With Obamas budget plan coming out I’m sure they will try to find something else to fire on. 

UPDATE: After the GOP made a big deal about businesses being forced to provide access to contraception for their employees a bill was introduced into the Senate.
