Statement by Cecile Richards, President of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, on Obama Admini
In the face of a misleading and outrageous assault on womens health, the Obama administration has reaffirmed its commitment to ensuring all women will have access to birth control coverage, with no costly co-pays, no additional hurdles, and no matter where they work.
We believe the compliance mechanism does not compromise a womans ability to access these critical birth control benefits.
However we will be vigilant in holding the administration and the institutions accountable for a rigorous, fair and consistent implementation of the policy, which does not compromise the essential principles of access to care.
Thats why women have consistently applauded the Obama administration for one of the greatest expansions for womens health in decades.
