MN Lawmakers Introduce Bill To Protect Contraceptive Coverage Access
MN Lawmakers Introduce Bill To Protect Contraceptive Coverage Access
February 26, 2015 — Minnesota legislators have introduced a bill (HF 1165) that would require most employers in the state to include all FDA-approved contraceptives in their health insurance plans at no additional cost to employees, the AP/Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
According to the AP/Star Tribune, the state House has previously rejected a similar bill. State Rep. Erin Murphy (D), one of the bill's authors, said she does not yet have support for the bill among House Republicans, who control the chamber (AP/Minneapolis Star Tribune, 2/25).
