Unions protest 100m hospital donation - page 3

But here's the thing--if a women goes to this ambulatory care center and is seeking birth control, chances are this won't be on the agenda of the plan of care. If same woman comes back because she is now pregnant, again, chances are that pregnancy termination will not be either. So then we have a woman without choices, and a child who potentially suffers because of it.

These kind of donators seek out pushing their own political agenda in area where a large majority of patients would be under-served. This way, they are in a position of power and control, as for the patient there's little other choice.

I find it difficult to believe that this hospital is the only place a woman can go in NYC to get rid of her "little problem." I'm in a smallish city in the south, and we even have an abortionist. He's quite a charmer, too, one of the most repulsive individuals I've ever had the misfortune to meet. When the Koch brothers are marching into Planned Parenthood and dragging women out of the stirrups by the hair, then I might understand how them giving money to this hospital is limiting women's rights. So the woman has to go to the health department or PP to get her condoms or pills after she gets a cut sutured here. The options are there, just not there. Why is it such a heinous intrusion on a woman if she can't kill her baby in one locale but can in another? Abortions aren't done in any of the ambulatory care centers here, either, thankfully.

You are free to dislike abortion and to choose not to complete one.
Not every American shares your Christian belief system which prohibits exercising of that right.

Many of us are concerned about the ongoing erosion of women's reproductive health rights in this country. We are concerned that legislators (generally older white men) are clamoring to make abortion unavailable in their geographic region for many poor women. Along with the disappearance of abortion clinics is the disappearance of clinics which provide reproductive health care to those very same women. Please review what is happening in Texas as example.

At the same time, the SCOTUS is deciding whether or not your employer may decide for you which birth control will be paid for by your health insurance. that is, apparently because it violates the religious beliefs of the company. (what church does your company attend?) Which personal thing will they get to decide for you next based upon their "religion" or faith system (does capitalism count as a religious or faith system)?

But again, how is THIS ambulatory care center preventing anyone from abortion? Or birth control? Is every health care operation supposed to take care of this? Do you expect an orthopedic surgeon's office to provide murder on demand too? I know it's a crazy thought, but maybe this huge donation of money to health care is a good thing, even if you don't care for their beliefs.

If you are unaware that poverty and geography can limit a woman's access to reproductive health care I again refer you to Texas.
