HOC, calls five men to testify on women health, no women testify???

427719_10150695171509384_86574174383_11387229_124146115_nRight now at a House Oversight Committee hearing, House Republicans have called five men to testify on women’s health. My colleague Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-NY) who is on the committee, looked at this panel (from which a woman who was the Democratic witness was excluded by the GOP) and asked: where are the women? That’s a good question.

Women of this country is getting screwed by the GOP big time…

has anyone seen a petition regarding these hearings?? I can't find a single one. How are women not standing up in anger? Even my most religious female friends agree that this is not a war on religion it is a war on women. WHY AREN'T WE DOING SOMETHING?

i haven't seen any of yet.. It seem to me that GOP wants to return us back to the 40s or 50s.. I wouldn't be surprise if they try to enact slavery again..

I will keep an eye out for any petition. there could be on Change.org
