Women who want to receive state-funded health care in Texas will need to either produce a marriage certificate or subject themselves to a visual inspection of their hymen in order to receive health care, if Republican State Rep. Molly White has her way. “The best way we can ensure that women will abide by our strong commitment to abstinence is to actually verify it,” stated White, who filed the Hymen Integrity Act of 2015 on Tuesday afternoon. - Greg GuitarBuster

LOL Good one! "This is an April Fool’s Day post, in keeping with BOR’s long-standing tradition of posting “fake” news on the First of April. But honestly other than the parts about hymens everything else here is true. The legislature is trying to slash funding for basic cancer screenings, and last night voted to move the funds from an HIV/AIDS prevention program to more abstinence-only education. And Molly White is afraid of scientifically accurate sex education. The Texas Legislature may be a parody of itself at this point. Unfortunately, the joke’s on people who need access to health care." - Jessie

Yup. This sort of thing has become too easy to believe. - Big Joe Silenced
