In the Jewish Daily Forward - http://www.forward.com/articles/151840/
Foster said she sees circumcision as a health issue, not a religious one. “I happen to be Jewish. I happen to be committed to health issues for all people, and an opportunity for all people to receive the best care possible,” she said.
Then later in the article she says -
Foster, the main backer of the Colorado bill, said she believes that cutting Medicaid coverage for circumcision sent a message of support to anti-circumcision activists who want see the procedure outlawed nationwide. She is determined to PUSH BACK against that effort.
“Ultimately, I think when the anti-circumcision people begin to see so many states denying benefits,” Foster said, “it will be easier for them now to make their case that circumcision should be banned altogether.”
