In response to the President’s announcement about women’s health care, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (FL-20) released the following statement:

“I applaud and support the President's announcement that will expand access to no-cost contraceptives for all women in this country, regardless of where they work, while respecting the sacred tenets of the separation of church and state. This is a respectful, reasonable accommodation that will allow religiously affiliated institutions to adhere to their beliefs while offering employees of all faiths access to quality, affordable care. At a time when our economy is still rebuilding, women should not have to choose between keeping their job and having access to affordable contraception. This announcement ensures that they can have both."
