I just wrote to the state representative spearheading the campaign to outlaw emergency contraceptives on college campuses in Wisconsin.

If you'd like to let this idiot know what a jackass he is you can email him too.

Doesn't that bill also prohibit the sale of birth control? I was fairly certain it did, and called him about it last week but the douchebag never called me back.

From what I understand it's purposely worded so vaguely that health care facilities can choose not to dispense regular birth control if they feel like it.

Click Here to read the letter I sent him. I also sent an abridged (i.e. less pointed) version of it to the Post-Crescent. Though I doubt it will do anything maybe at least one person will realize how stupid the whole thing is.

You don't really have to worry anyway. Doyle said he'd veto it the second it hit his desk. Good to see he's not completely useless.

You can read it in the Post-Crescent too. I got in there today (and by today of course I mean June 22, which was yesterday) with it. Or, if you didn't get a paper, you can read it on their website.

Enjoy!

I got one :-)

Nice edits, btw (especially the word "proposed" because I forgot to put it in there even though I meant to). Stupid paper doesn't have enough space for my long-windedness! You know, they really shouldn't give you a 300 word limit if they don't intend to print what you actually write.

I don't really mind though, the point got across and that's all that matters. Thanks again.

Also, thanks for the voicemail brimming with barely contained glee, it was cute.
