    Insurance companies in Oregon would be required to cover abortions and other reproductive services at no cost to the patient regardless of income, citizenship status or gender identity under a measure approved Wednesday by lawmakers.

    Oregon already has some of the most liberal abortion laws in the U.S., leaving out otherwise common requirements for waiting periods or spending limits on taxpayer funds.

    Hey, that's good for tourism. Maybe Virgin Airlines will bring illegals from all over the world for abortions.

    Do they get health insurance cards when they land?

    This one will be headed to the Supreme Court I suspect.

    And why is gender identity important? The fetus they want to destroy is proof enough isn't it?

    It's important because men can obviously give birth. I mean, why question it? it's just a tool you haven't unlocked yet, noob

    So. If an illegal immigrant can get one why can't a "man"?

    Just say anyone on Earth who happens to want an abortion can get one paid for by insurance as long as that person is in Oregon.

    Can a man who identifies as a pregnant woman get an abortion paid for even if he isn't actually pregnant?

    Huh, I wonder if this will open the door to requiring insurance to cover cosmetic plastic surgery. After all that and abortion are choices.

    Isn't Oregon wonderful? So caring. Just imagine, a place in the world where anyone can come and get an abortion. Let's hear it! Does that feel good?

    The upside for me is, Democrats do this.

    I am pro choice, but I don't see why the government needs to get involved.

    Ahh, Oregon is so dumb collectively that I can probably bill them from Vegas without worry.

    Just because you're not a citizen doesn't mean that you're illegal.

    And employers that hire illegals still have to provide them medical insurance if they work full time.

    Sure it does. Unless they have a work permit, Green Card.

    Naw! Not unless the employer has 50 or more employees (might be 40).
    Even then, who is going to bitch?

    Nope, but it's nice to see you finally figured it out.
