Being a Woman is Not a Pre-Existing Condition
My post and petition on one of the most appalling aspects of the pre-existing condition bullshit in the health insurance industry:
Health insurance companies take advantage of the American public simply because they can. Government needs to tell them to cease and desist with discriminatory practices like denying women coverage because of pregnancy, rape, domestic abuse or HIV medication .
The current effort to overhaul the healthcare industry must not neglect this institutionalized sexism, and you can help by calling on Congress to investigate these cases. Please contact your elected reps and ask them to consider these abuses and demand their redress as Congress continues to craft and debate new healthcare legislation for the American public.
