On behalf of my state, I will recognize Michigan’s production of John Dingell, who wrote that healthcare bill. Way to go Great Lake State for saving the entire country a second time (the first time was Robocop).
RoboCop didn’t actually win until the movie that all fans/critics reject. METAPHOR?
Michigan also produced the congressman that added the Stupak-Pitts amendment. From NARAL:
The Stupak-Pitts amendment makes it virtually impossible for private insurance companies that participate in the new system to offer abortion coverage to women. This would have the effect of denying women the right to use their own personal private funds to purchase an insurance plan with abortion coverage in the new health system — a radical departure from the status quo. Presently, more than 85 percent of private-insurance plans cover abortion services.
