It's good to be back.

It was a pleasure to host Heather Busby, Executive Director of NARAL Pro-Choice Texas on the re-inaugural episode of Issues for Your Tissues. We talked about the effects of the recent legislative session including HB 2 which was signed into law in the fall.

Aside from the detriment to women's health this law provides, Gov. Perry adds insult to injury by declaring repeat special sessions, which are to be reserved for emergencies. It's pretty arrogant to think that controlling my healthcare is a state emergency.
