Filed Under: More Wackjob Bush Appointments

In 2001, Orr lauded Bush's proposal to stop requiring federal employees' health insurance plans to cover birth control, telling the Washington Post, "We’re quite pleased because fertility is not a disease. It’s not a medical necessity that you have it."
It goes without saying that her position involves overseeing reproductive health issues.
