losing is not an option

Yesterday, the House voted on the Right to Contraception Act. It's a simple law that would protect access to birth control across the country.  In what should be horrifying to all of us and surprising to none, only eight Republicans voted to pass the act. That means 195 voted AGAINST it. Unbelievab…
