Washington, D.C. - Today following news that the Michigan State House advanced three rightwing anti-women’s health care bills through committee, U.S. Rep. Gary Peters issued the following statement:

“Today Republicans in the Michigan State House advanced three more bills designed to make it harder for women to access important health care. The Tea Party's war on women has gone on for too long; women’s health should not be a political bargaining chip and it’s time for Republicans to stop playing these dangerous games.”
