On the eve of Spring Break, State Rep. Daniel LeMahieu, R-Oostburg, said he would introduce legislation preventing organizations associated with the UW System from offering emergency contraception in the form of the morning-after pill Plan B. The pending legislation is a response to pressure from conservative groups angry at the advertisement University Health Service ran in both student newspapers that was intended to make students aware of their service. Rep. LeMahieu is out of line to propose such legislation.
