How many do you know who can afford over the counter allergy meds but get prescription meds because they are covered by insurance?
How many get eye exams paid for?
This isn't about finding a way for the woman to pay for this herself, that question has been answered for approx 50% of the women in this country. No more than snot meds or eye exams. poor deflection. Easy coverage to offer.
Considering it helps a female worker plan her career and family it would seem a win for everyone, all for 2 hours of wages a month for both femalw worker and the boss if no discount can be arranged.
There is no proof of your claim though.
Fact check even says that the results of such legislation are murky.
And considering the more relevant context behind this, it's unlikely that this mandate will reduce unwanted pregnancies to any real degree because, this "free" bc, mostly effects middle and upper income women, who can already afford it and are not reproducing at societal replacement level.
