College Students May Get Lower Prices for Birth Control Pills
The deficit reduction act had language that killed discounts for birth control pills. Now house members want provision in new war funding bill. This provision will undo a lot of the damage done by the deficit reduction act to low income individuals and college students
“More than 100 House members are urging congressional leaders to include language in a war spending bill to reverse the rising costs of birth control drugs and devices at health centers serving low-income women, including college students.”
Colleges have been handling this in their own way for a while but now it seems thy will get a break in the [hopefully] near future.
