Senator Harry Reid: "The Republicans never lose an opportunity to mess up a good piece of legislation. Listen to this: They’re talking about first amendment rights, the Constitution. And I appreciate that. But, Mr. President, that is so senseless. This debate that’s going on dealing with this issue, dealing with contraception, is a rule that hasn’t been made final yet. There’s no final rule. Let’s wait until there’s at least a rule that we can talk about. There is not a final rule. That’s what all you read about in the newspapers, why there’s discussions going on as we speak."
