Recently, the Pennsylvania Senate voted on HB 818, which had one purpose and one purpose only. As the Logan Valley Blues described, HB 818 as “a bill whose only purpose is to be sure that if a woman buys health insurance through the health insurance marketplace, that insurance cannot cover abortion.” So who are these Senators? Well, they’re all white and all men.

2 Comments on Wall of Shame: Meet the Six Spineless PA Democratic Senators who don’t like Women’s Rights
I wonder how many of them just like to protect people? Did they protect the shale industry? Maybe they are just nice white males? I think maybe Greenlee Partners’ clients are who they like to protect.
Some of them are protected by the Shale Industry. Solobay is one of them. He ended up getting Superbowl tickets when the Steelers played the Cards a few years ago from Chesapeake I believe? I think that this Senate vote is more to do with local constituents than anything else, but unlike the House, it’s extremely hard to lose your job in the Senate. You pretty much have it for life, or when you go to a higher office.
