The Senate Judiciary Committee voted 6-2 Monday to endorse a controversial bill that would allow Arizona employers the right to deny health insurance coverage for contraceptives based on religious objections.

 

Arizona House Bill 2625, authored by Majority Whip Debbie Lesko, R-Glendale, would permit employers to ask their employees for proof of medical prescription if they seek contraceptives for non-reproductive purposes, such as hormone control or acne treatment.

 

“I believe we live in America. We don’t live in the  Soviet Union,” Lesko said. “So, government should not be telling the organizations or mom and pop employers to do something against their moral beliefs.”

 

Lesko said this bill responds to a contraceptive mandate in the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act signed into law March 2010.

 

“My whole legislation is about our First Amendment rights and freedom of religion,” Lesko said. “All my bill does is that an employer can opt out of the mandate if they have any religious objections.”

Rick Santorum wants to put an end to the distribution of pornography in the United States.

 

"America is suffering a pandemic of harm from pornography," Santorum's official website reads. "Pornography is toxic to marriages and relationships. It contributes to misogyny and violence against women. It is a contributing factor to prostitution and sex trafficking."

 

The former Pennsylvania senator states that, "as a parent, I am concerned about the widespread distribution of illegal obscene pornography and its profound effects on our culture."

 

Santorum criticized the Obama administration for turning "a blind eye ... to the scourge of pornography" and for refusing to enforce obscenity laws.

 

"If elected President, I will appoint an Attorney General who will do so," Santorum writes. "While the Obama Department of Justice seems to favor pornographers over children and families, that will change under a Santorum Administration."

So who's going to be the next president? It's been donkey's years since they had a good one.

The only one on the republican side they say is DeSantis who was Florida Guvnor. Rubio and Vance have no chance as they’re tied to Trump.

Democrats they reckon will ruin it by picking someone from the crazy side of them that the majority of people dispise going by their track record of Hilary and Harris you wouldn’t put it past them.

If the Dens are sensible they reckon the Guvnors from Georgia and Pennsylvania will be high up.

although the amount of people obsessed by US politics in the UK hopefully it’s AOC so they have get something to look at.

Pretty sure AIPAC will be quite happy given there major donars to Schumer and Jeffries who will be leaders in the house and senate.

I think the Democrats will read the room wrong if they stick with that pair.

Maybe get Ronald McDonald to stand.

Just out of interest, who would you say was their last good President?

You mean like when you claimed if Trump won in 24 he would enact Project 2025 and there would be no more elections here in the states.

Classic Mason now as if I’m going to be bothered to trawl back through you posts to find it.

I remember you on A/Mad saying you were a huge fan of Mark Hately, Ian Durrant & that you can’t top the atmosphere on Old Firm day

The post is on there somewhere, I can’t be arsed looking for it.

Thanks for making my point I would have said be a man and admit to what you said but no doubt that would have sent you off on your bizarre obsession with trans debate.

It’s not me making the bold claims. I’ll have a look for you

Nah, can’t find it. The search function on A/Mad is about the only thing that works on that site too. You must be mistaken.

Oh, you worked that word ‘trans’ in there with a crowbar. Anything you’d like to share with the group?

My big match prediction of him being gone by the end of summer is looking good. He’s unraveling too quickly

It was half right. Hes completely detached from reality. The only thing I underestimated was the Americans capacity to put up with their leader discussing men’s asses, drainage pipes, dementia tests etc

I don't think you underestimated their gullibility as much as Trumpet did when he thought they'd still go for corrupt and incompetent candidates like Ken Paxton and Darlene Graham. Given that they still got 43-46% if the vote, it wasn't underestimated by that much.
