This work responds to the all-male congressional committee formed to hear critiques of President Barack Obama’s plan requiring insurance coverage of contraception for American women. Male clergymen of various faiths testified to the committee, prompting outraged Democratic women senators and constituents to ask why women had no voice in the proceedings.
