It’s been less than a year since Wake County, North Carolina, had a heated back and forth, allowing, rescinding, and once more allowing abortion coverage for county employees in their public insurance plan.

Now, the county Republicans are at it again, once more trying to cancel the ability to cover abortions.

Via Indyweek:

The Wake Board of Commissioners just wrapped up a 5 1/2-hour public session and went into closed session. The new 4-3 Republican majority elected Paul Coble as their chair for a year, and soon voted 4-3 to rescind resolutions adopted last year (when Democrats were in the majority) opposing school resegregation and affirming that the county’s employee health insurance should cover elective abortions.

…

On the abortion issue, Gurley asserted, as he did last year, that a 1981 court case bars local governments from including abortion coverage in their insurance plans, though he conceded that Wake’s plan contained such coverage from 1994 until 2009, when Republicans managed briefly to have it removed by County Manager David Cooke. Democratic commissioners, who then held a 4-3 minority, overturned Cooke’s decision.

Wake County Republicans — pro-segregation, anti-reproductive health.
