Valerie McCray: Safeguard privacy of women for medication and contraception

The right of a woman to make autonomous decisions about her own body/reproductive functions is at the core of her basic human rights to equality, medical privacy, & bodily integrity. I will push for legislation that protects access nationally to abortion with FDA-approved medication/procedures & defend access to emergency medical care & everyday reproductive care. Affordable contraception to anyone who wants and needs it. Safeguard the privacy of patients/providers & ensure they have accurate information and legal resources necessary. For those choosing to grow their family, ensure they have adequate access to resources and for pay for quality of life.

Jim Banks: No plan to make IVF free

Trump told NBC News last month when asked what he'd do about IVF if elected. "We're going to be mandating that the insurance company pay," Trump told NBC News last month when asked what he'd do about IVF if elected. "We're going to be mandating that the insurance company pay."

Some worried about the high cost of such a policy. Others confessed they don't understand what he's proposing to do. Yet others wondered aloud if Trump was serious. And numerous Trump allies said his announcement came as a surprise to them

Rep. Jim Banks, R-Ind., a former chair of the conservative Republican Study Committee and a Senate candidate, said he hasn't seen a Trump policy plan on IVF to evaluate.

There is scant evidence of a Republican appetite for that plan in Congress. "We'll have to see what that looks like," he said. "I don't know what that would look like -- to make it free."
