(METAIRIE, La.) Sept. 24 -- A plan to pay women to have their tubes tied. That's what a Louisiana state representative is proposing.
State Rep. John LaBruzzo, R-Metairie, says he'd offer women on welfare $1,000 to get their tubes tied. LaBruzzo says welfare recipients are reproducing faster than more affluent, tax-paying residents of Louisiana. His plan to slow the growth of welfare rolls would be completely voluntary.
Some opponents of the plan call it racist.
