The "most important" changes, he said, need to go through Congress. "To make a real and lasting difference, Congress too must act," said the president.

    The article talks about how the bill would allow all employers with religious and moral objections to birth control to refuse to provide coverage for that purpose through their health plans. It also states that "employers would still have to provide coverage for contraception drugs for other medical reasons but could make women seeking reimbursements explain why they needed it. "

    You will find this article is comparable to oral contraception law, but also deals with the religious organization should be exempt from providing their employees with birth control. Here is a something I found interesting " It argues that while churches themselves are exempt from providing birth control to employees free of charge, "religious schools, hospitals, and social services don't qualify as religious, and must therefore provide these drugs and procedures."

    Medical Marijuana has been studied to fight cancer cells and make those in too much pain to be comfortable. Why shouldn't this be legal? Plus, kids on the street on going to use it anyway, why not be able to control it? It would be easier to moderate that way.

    In this article, the author explain how if legalizing marijuana or cannabis, you benefit those with medical needs. Not only that, but it will allow the government to better controls it from the youth. Also proposes that it is better than other things the youth tries out, like alcohol, and cocaine.

    This is an article from the Charleston Gazette, also brought up in the class discussion. This is about women's rights to choose whether or not they wish to use birth control. Should people who disagree with birth control be able to block it from insurance coverage of their employees?
