Bevin’s crusades against Planned Parenthood ignore larger issues

By Aaron Hartley–

In his first few months in office, Governor Matt Bevin has made it abundantly clear where his priorities lie. A staunch conservative, Bevin has been working diligently, and often successfully, to undo many of the progressive victories of Kentucky’s last governor.

Bevin has attacked minimum wage increase, a restoration of voting rights for felons and a deconstruction of the state’s hugely successful health care implementation, Kynect. Recently, Bevin turned his attention to the state’s Planned Parenthood centers in a move that is not only misled, but dangerous for the health and welfare of the state.
