Given the legislative direction Florida has taken lately, are you concerned about efforts to limit access to contraception, from funding support through mechanisms like Medicaid to other measures? Or do you think the intent is to only target women reproductive access? Does the medical community have a responsibility to speak about these issues to government leaders?

it is unclear whether there are any recent legislative efforts in Florida to limit access to contraception. However, it is worth noting that the state's political climate has been largely dominated by conservative lawmakers, and reproductive health has been a contentious issue in the state's legislature.
If there are any efforts to limit access to contraception in Florida, it would be important for the medical community to speak out and advocate for reproductive rights. While it is unclear whether the intent of any such efforts would be to only target women's reproductive access, it is important to ensure that all individuals have access to the health care services they need. The medical community has a responsibility to advocate for their patients and ensure that lawmakers are aware of the potential consequences of their actions on public health.
