Using Contraception Could Soon Cost You Your Job In Missouri
By Natalie Dailey on June 19, 2017
Under this new Republican regime, reproductive rights are taking a hit left and right. Many states are limiting abortion rights and access to birth control. Women in Missouri may be facing another setback in their reproductive rights.
The Senate in Missouri just passed a bill that would legally allow hiring managers to discriminate against women who use birth control or women who have had abortions. The law also requires abortion clinics to meet the same standards as outpatient surgery centers.
Governor Eric Greitens said:
We want to protect life. We want to defend life, and we want to promote a culture of life here in the state of Missouri.
Currently, the state bans employers from discriminating against these women. However, this new law would repeal it.
