President Obama and Women’s Health Care

]]> How is President Obama doing so far when it comes to women’s health care? Planned Parenthood has given him a scorecard which says that “women of childbearing age spend 68 percent more in out-of-pocket health care costs than men.” The organization has given him high marks and says that he has “lived up to his pledge to make sure that strengthening women’s health is a priority in his administration.”

Some of the highlights include protecting a woman’s right to choose, making birth control accessible and affordable, and “repealing the global gag rule.” For a complete list of grades and subjects, check out the Planned Parenthood scorecard.
