New Planned Parenthood ad: Obama ‘stood strong’ on birth-control mandate

By Julian Pecquet - 02/01/12 01:25 PM ET

The Planned Parenthood Action Fund launched a TV ad Wednesday that praises the Obama administration for sticking to its requirement that insurance plans cover birth control without copays or deductibles starting this year.

Many of those institutions already cover birth control, and a majority of women tell pollsters they approve of the no-cost mandate.
