Female Dems Walk Out on House Contraception Hearing After GOP Silences Women - COLORLINES

socialismartnature:

This is awesome, but they also need to walk out of their own Party which has for years been ceding miles of ground to the right-wing on the question of abortion and reproductive justice.

I’m through with any Party which will not proudly stand up and lead the charge in the fight for women’s rights. Period. I’m done with compromise and niceties. We need revolutionary social tumult. Nothing more, nothing less.

Reps. Carolyn Maloney (D-NY) and Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC) walked out of the House Oversight Committee’s hearing on the White House mandate requiring employers and insurers to provide contraception coverage after Committee Chairman Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) refused to allow women to testify as witnesses on Thursday morning.

“What I want to know is, where are the women?” Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) asked Issa before walking out of the hearing after the first panel. “I look at this panel, and I don’t see one single individual representing the tens of millions of women across the country who want and need insurance coverage for basic preventative health care services, including family planning. Where are the women?”

    This is only further evidence to me that this country is a far-cry from the country it used to be, and it sickens me....
