Texas Congressman Threatens Companies That Pay For Employees Out of State Abortion Expenses. Companies say “Go F@&$ Yourself”

[Coyote]

Don't deflect--LINK IT and the statistics that show how many of the Sixty Million aborted children this applied to.

99% of that 60 million abortions occur early in pregnancy.

As long as it is not viable, it is part of a woman’s body and the decision rests with her.

Most murderers can find justification for their deeds, you've just proved that supporters of murder do the same.

LINK? I submit you reached way up in a dark place to pull that out of.

In a filing written for an April 26 meeting, Citigroup wrote: “In response to changes in reproductive health-care laws in certain states in the U.S., beginning in 2022 we provide travel benefits to facilitate access to adequate resources.”


Citigroup is not the only company with policies designed to assist employees seeking abortions who are living in restrictive states such as Texas.

In September 2021, Salesforce told employees the company would help them and their families relocate if they had issues with reproductive health care in their states.

Lyft CEO Logan Green announced the company would pay legal fees for any drivers sued under the Texas law for helping women get abortions.


The parent company of Tinder and OkCupid, Match Group Inc., announced it too was creating a fund for its Texas employees impacted by the abortion law.

In an internal note to employees, Shar Dubey, Match Group’s CEO, wrote that the company “doesn’t usually take political stands unless it is relevant to our business ... but this particular law is so regressive to the cause of women’s rights that I felt compelled to speak publicly about my personal views.”

She added: “ immigrated to America from India over 25 years ago and I have to say, as a Texas resident, I am shocked that I now live in a state where women’s reproductive laws are more regressive than most of the world, including India.”

Texas congressman threatens Citigroup over its pledge to pay for employees’ out-of-state abortions

In response to a mid-March announcement by Citigroup Inc. that it would begin covering travel expenses for its employees living in states that limited or nearly banned abortions, a Texas lawmaker has threatened to block the bank's ability to underwrite...

Hey Briscoe. These companies are going to make sure their employees can obtain abortion services, and there isn’t a damn thing you can do about it. And the Supreme Court can’t help you either.

How does feel to be the impotent little wimp that you are?

They won’t do shit

Wall Street wants fewer citizens and a lot more illegal aliens.

thanks for showing us which companies to boycott

A woman’s right to an abortion isn’t a crime.

a baby killer calls someone twisted

how far have we fallen...

but then again, I am not included in that "we"... and hopefully most of America is not either

Taking this ridiculous Governmental Over Reach into how a Corporation Spends their health care dollars.

A MALE employee decides that he wants to have a Vasectomy (the cutting and the sealing of the tubes used to carry semen). He uses his Corporate Health Care Provider to find a doctor to do the procedure.

The doctor agrees to perform the procedure (what happens in the doctor's office is NOT the business of the government) and the MALE Employee receives the Vasectomy.

As semen is the primary and only means of procreation (it takes an egg and semen to make a baby) is the MALE Employee guilty of ending an unplanned and unwanted pregnancy?

As the semen is vital to that unplanned and unwanted pregnancy, should the government arrest the Man for preventing said pregnancy? He is guilty of not creating the unwanted and unplanned pregnancy.

Is not having a Vasectomy equal to having an Abortion?

Should not Men be proecuted for recieving a Vasectomy as equally as a Woman would be prosecuted for receiving an Abortion.

The Man is just as guilty of not wanting an unplanned/unwanted pregnancy as the Woman.

Does the Government have the right to force an end to Vasectomies as it does Abortions?

And for Meat Heads MAGA Numb Nuts out there I had a Vasectomy after my Military Service in Viet Nam. I also wonder many the fuck wad red hat MAGA shit heads have had Vasectomy themselves. They are guilty of preventing procreation, just like a Woman having an Abortion who does not want to have a baby.

Why are Men treated differently for having procedure that prevents an unwanted/unplanned pregnancy?

 

[Darkwind]

There is no such state and never has been. Birth markers the point individual rights.

Individual rights begin at conception, regardless of your attempts to dehumanize for convience.

Abortion is murder--not health care--you fucking liberals figure you can just change the meanings of words.

Abortion is a Constitutional right. It will remain legal, and isn't going anywhere. Those are the only words you need to comprehend.

It now needs to be codified into federal law, and then actual criminal laws passed at the state and federal level, making it a felony punishable by a minimum of 5 years in prison, and a $100,000 fine for anyone that obstructs any woman from entering any place of medical or healthcare practice regarding a pregnancy. With any citizen being able to sue the obstructer for damages of $50,000.

Lets start taking these peoples fire arms rights, and voting rights away with these convictions, and then draining the coffers of their personal, and religious organizations bank accounts. That should start putting a damper on the forced birthers over time.

 

[Concerned American]

is the MALE Employee guilty of ending an unplanned and unwanted pregnancy?

Before the fact? I hardly think so.

Is not having a Vasectomy equal to having an Abortion?

A vasectomy does not stop a beating heart any more than a hysterectomy or a tubal ligation. Educate yourself before showing your ignorance again, moron. Killing a living being is not the same as preventing the pregnancy to begin with. You morons never cease to amaze me with your stupidity.

 

[Concerned American]

Abortion is a Constitutional right.

Please show that to me in the constitution moron. For nearly 200 years, the SCOTUS disagreed with abortion. It can be reversed and I have faith it will be. Murderer.

Again, your recording is stuck...check the string you pull on your neck that gives the same baloney propaganda parrot response each time.
Fascists are leftists, even dumb Dimmers know that.

It isn’t about ‘saving babies’ – that’s a lie; it’s about political control, it’s about the neo-fascist authoritarian right using ‘abortion’ as a political weapon against opponents and as a means to garner support among the political base.

It’s about conservatives having more power, more government, and establishing the tyranny of Republican minority rule at the expense of individual liberty.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

abortion is murder--not healthcare.

This is a lie.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

But they didn't take the self-responsibility option because, like always, thats too hard.

Wrong.

No contraceptive method is 100 percent; women who make a good-faith effort to not become pregnant shouldn’t be forced to give birth against their will through force of law.

And whatever the circumstances, whatever a woman’s situation, government has no authority to violate a woman’s right to privacy and interfere with a woman’s decision whether to have a child or not.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

What does abortion have to do with "reproductive" You morons are too much. Abortion is a synonym for MURDER not reproduction. Quit lying.

That's the rub. Many believe abortion isn't murder. You stomping your feet and demanding it is means absolutely fuck all. Stop trying to be an ideological bully. It only benefits you, and most people probably hate you, so...

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Abortion is a Constitutional right. It will remain legal, and isn't going anywhere.

Correct.

Women have every right to travel to a free state that recognizes the right to privacy if she so desires.

And employers have every right to assist their female employees to receive the healthcare they need.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Many believe abortion isn't murder.

That abortion is not ‘murder’ is also a fact of law.
