October 3, 2008

FANWOOD – Forced to admit he does not support a woman’s right to obtain contraception, State Senator Leonard Lance stood by his vote to deny women access to birth control. A new ad from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee pointed out that Lance was one of only six State Senators to oppose Linda Stender’s bill in 2006 that guaranteed women the right to have their prescriptions filled despite a pharmacist’s personal beliefs. The bill was signed into law in November 2007.
