Unplanned pregnancy? Jeb Bush has a number you can call…

Jeb Bush is offering $2 million for anti-abortion groups in Florida to establish a statewide hotline for “crisis pregnancy counseling.”
The money will only be given to groups that “adhere to a strict policy of not promoting, referring or counseling for abortion.” I’m sure they’ll also throw in some inaccurate information about abortion, just for good measure.
The deadline passed with no bids filed. So now Jeb is considering awarding a no-bid contract.
Because, you know, that $2 million couldn’t be used to provide better prenatal care or subsidized child care or anything. Nah, Florida’s better off using that money to limit women’s choices.
