F.D.A.'s Rejection of Contraceptive Is Questioned - New York Times

F.D.A.'s Rejection of Contraceptive Is Questioned - New York Times "We are deeply opposed to this subversion of science," Representative Henry Waxman, Democrat of California, wrote to Health and Human Services Secretary Michael O. Leavitt, in a letter signed by 17 other lawmakers.
