... The last stop on my terrible journey was Provo Canyon School, a lockdown facility where I was sent after I escaped from a couple boot-camp type places. On my first day, I was forced to remove all my clothes, squat and cough, and submit to a gynecological exam – all watched closely by male staff. Although it was an extremely uncomfortable experience, I was led to believe it was a legitimate, routine check for contraband. But what I couldn’t understand as a 16-year-old girl was why that internal exam would be done to me frequently during my time at Provo, and only during the middle of the night....
In the 1990s I attended a spoken word performance by Jello Biafra. He didn't claim to be a victim of the "troubled teen industry", but he spoke authoritatively, at length and in the harshest possible terms about it. I remember that he singled out a Utah "school", but it may not have been the Provo Canyon School, which is still open . The timing does sync between his talk and Hilton's incarceration. I can't find the set among his track listings, but some of the titles are pretty broad. Anyhow, very impactful. Good on Biafra and Hilton for speaking out.

True, bad editor, but it does say this about a companion bill:
... According to The Hill, House Minority Whip Steve Scalise urged Republican members to vote no on HR 7790, arguing that Speaker Nancy Pelosi was pushing the bill forward "in hopes of covering up the administration's ineptitude by throwing additional money at the FDA with no plan to actually fix the problem, all while failing to hold the FDA accountable." ...
Perhaps we can infer that the "reasoning" for opposing the first bill is similar.
Imagine the squawking that would come from the GQP if the FDA had looked the other way and allowed tainted formula to be marketed and dozens of infants died. Suddenly the issue would be failure of the FDA. There's just no way to appease these fools.

Pro afterbirth abortion.
I imagine the bill will have to go to the US Senate, hopefully with a majority yes vote.
