    Well if we want to have them cover IVF then they should cover the opposite and preventing pregnancy. I just wonder what the limit will be on condoms, for those that fuck it might not be enough.

    Your insurance covers 1 per month, uhh when I was 18 that was good for a year.

        I mean, free to order and a limited supply sounds like a good way to have people who actually use and want them.

        Easy, free but inconvenient enough you won’t do it for the hell of it.

    Inevitably it will only be covered by Medicare, commence pulling apart the grilled cheese sandwich.

    Sounds like a good idea, I don’t see why not. Now if only I had health insurance…

    When I was a teen, the nearest health center was a LBGT-friendly one. And we got LOTS of free condoms.

    Of course, I didn’t actually use any until much later in life. But still…

      I used to volunteer for planned parenthood and they gave me all sorts of condom goodies to hand out wherever I went. I’m asexual so it was fun for me to swat down men asking if they could use them on me! “Do you want the free awesome condoms, or do you want to piss off the safe sex fairy? That’s what I thought. Go have fun now.”

      Around Halloween, condoms taped to a stick like a sucker. Actually year round for fun. Those were always a big hit at parties. “Hey want a sucker? This will make it safe!”

      Xmas, they had red and green flavored condoms. Red was peppermint green was fruity.

      Going to a convention they would ship me with several hundred glittery shiny package condoms. I had an alligator clip necklace for those shiny bitches. Got so much love for it.

      You name it, they did it with condoms. Because why the hell not make it fun??

      Sadly I’m too old to social these days (jk I’m just not an event person anymore). Or I’d keep it up for sure.

      Let me fix that for you: a politician’s attempt to court disengaged voters by presenting a popular proposal. AKA democracy.

            They’ve been in office for 4 years and they finally think about the voters. What reaction do you expect?

              they finally think about the voters.

              Okay so apparently you’ve been burying your head in the sand because it’s been nothing but progress in the past four years. From college forgiveness, to decriminalization, drop in violent crime, expanding overtime…

              But nah it’s cool bro THANKS BRANDON or whatever y’all say

                I wouldn’t say “nothing but progress”. There was that railroad union busting thing. And the student loan thing (though that was the Republicans’ fault). And currently there’s the whole genocide thing.

              Perhaps the voting public to have a bit more reflection than you seem to. It’s not like this is the one thing they’ve done in four years.

                Harris is in serious danger of losing to Trump. It takes a special kind of terrible candidate to be able to do that. Only Hillary Clinton accomplished it in the past. If Trump gets re-elected though, maybe the Dems can try for a new world record by launching three failed impeachments next term instead of two.

      I don’t really think of proposing new policies as “desperate” so much as just trying to outline her goals to people who are still undecided.

      Now if she went out and did some weird photoshoot stunt, I might start to pull out the desperate label.

      A desperate attempt by Kamala to limit the number of women dying from pregnancy complications since they have little to no access to abortion?
