Without insurance coverage contraception as you know can cost a woman over 3000 dollars during law school.

For a lot of students who like me -- on public interest scholarships.

That's practically an entire summer salary.

40% of the female students at Georgetown law reported to us that they struggled financially as a result of this policy.

I believe it or not those were the words of somebody the time magazine is now considering as person of the year.

I heard -- -- the failing magazine is now elevating former Georgetown law student.

Sandra flocked to the same level as let's see Winston Churchill.

Pope John Paul the second Martin Luther King Jr.

Just a few of the previous world leaders to -- the distinction and he had a chart are trying to explain.

How advocating for publicly funded birth control qualify -- -- -- -- for the person of the year.

And -- consultancy own democratic strategist -- Clinton is with us and concerned women for America's own penny -- Good to see you thanks me -- for Marjorie.

It's nine dollars a month at Wal-Mart for birth control.

-- women want to give birth control pills he go to online.

Get all the -- you want the little bar in New York City there for free he just take a handful on your way out.

Planned Parenthood gives these things out to women as wells and supposedly the -- when women and that's in part funded with taxpayer dollars he thinks she should be.

Woman of the Year.

Well the reason that -- -- represent what -- woman or person that you're should be about is that she took a national stage not knowing that she was by the way.

With dignity and grace and talked about a very challenging issue regardless of what you think of the issue.

She had been raked over the coals -- is called a prostitute and a slut and but she continued to happen national even global conversation.

With civility and I -- -- what she -- -- but the foundation of what she said.

Was false.

It's not -- thousand dollars over the course of a woman's career and why should taxpayers.

Be paying for her birth control why well again.

You you could argue the merits -- how about answering the cry to -- merits but.

But I think -- the point is is what she represented in terms of an issue and if you look at this list by the way of hundred people.

That were nominated by it just the general public it also includes the Ayatollah of Iran it includes Ryan Seacrest includes Ryan Gosling I mean Ryan Seacrest Alec -- say it.

-- the real like Barbie or Ken doll but beyond not I don't know what he's done either so.

And I'm really they had already -- your -- all you gonna -- salt Ryan Seacrest well and I'm just what I like defender funny go away.

But what is now -- bring to the table -- that we're glad that.

And try and think.

I don't know how many of -- gonna get any.

Here you know -- -- -- the idea that she would be considered as a slap in the face to about sixty million evangelical and Catholic women.

Who are are then did.

By that idea that -- -- forced to pay for someone else's abortion or abortion inducing drugs the whole her whole platform was advocating.

On.

Forcing us to violate our consciences.

This issue is not over -- liberty university's case is that -- that down -- the fourth circuit we will have our day in court.

But the idea that theater -- -- somehow held up as this this bastion of woman but fundamentally this this issue this is not true.

And then also the entitlement mindset why should play.

Pay for birth you know why should the woman hit in basically took the national stage saying she wanted free stuff they the idea that the ideal one.

When what she's young women.

-- in Pakistan who took a bullet in the head because she advocated that young -- should be able to have an education women here fighting in the Middle East for women's rights.

Women who are taking strong stands on behalf of real women's issues and yet we waste our time on -- -- that it was just.

Well step at -- for they a -- an illustration in this market it can't.

Glad well again.

-- what what penny is bringing up here of something called religious freedom are you willing to force Catholic institutions to go against their own religious teaching.

Well -- -- -- and fund something.

That is the antithesis of what their religion is teaching them.

Well as a Catholic woman I can say that what what they're representing in terms of policy is actually a separation between church and state and that's -- that deal that they -- what position on contraception is well known.

They're -- artificial means that's their teaching you don't have to follow it.

But that's their teaching.

Do you want the government.

To contradict or.

For -- mandate that they go against their religious principles well the Catholic woman I don't have to take birth control that is my choice at the Catholic and the thing latest for you gentlemen answer my question that I -- -- literally I -- up and so it absolutely I am and because in fact what.

What what this means is that we have an option.

Of whether we choose to take birth control or not you -- wanting to stay federal pro war.

Institutions.

To do something that is against their religious beliefs that C yes or no question.

Well actually the wave that that the tax money works is not directly going in through you know unanswered -- -- -- -- -- The answer is yes it is your choice whether or not to take birth control or whether or not have an abortion that you don't want me to have a -- whether or not I have to -- what you want to ignore the relation.
