Sen. Santorum: Birth Control is “Harmful” to Women

The American Constitution Society: Sen. Santorum: Birth Control is “Harmful” to Women:

Thursday evening on Comcast CN8, Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum explained on a talk show that he is “not a believer of birth control.”

From his point of view, he explained, “I think it’s harmful to women…and society.” Further, it has “harmful long-term consequences.”
