Sarah Ponder, among thousands of people who rallied this week against the abortion regulation measure sought by Republicans including Gov. Rick Perry, toted a big price comparison.
Ponder’s sign at a rally outside the Texas Capitol: “$800,000: 1.6 million condoms, 90K months of the pill, 20 full-time sexual health educators or 1 medically unnecessary & hypocritical special session.”
Her point: Instead of spending about $800,000 on the latest special session, which began this week, Texas could pay for other relevant items.
