Jill Stein: Healthcare is a right, including women's reproductive rights

Q: You have stated your support of the Obama administration's mandate that insurance companies provide birth control to women free of charge. Would you exempt religious organizations from this mandate?

STEIN: Religion and healthcare have nothing to do with each other. It should not be the prerogative of an employer to exercise his personal beliefs in determining the healthcare of his employees. Healthcare is a human right and we need to provide it through "Medicare for all". It needs to be a system that does away with this divide and conquer mentality that pits the religious community against the health of employees. It doesn't make any sense. We have a right to healthcare and there is a way to make it affordable.
