Amy Poehler Tackles the Birth Control Debate on SNL [VIDEO]

Amy Poehler returned to Weekend Update on SNL this weekend to tackle the recent birth control debate in one of her beloved "Really!?!" segments with Seth Meyers.

Addressing Congressman Darrell Issa’s recent all-male hearing on contraception as well as a bill requiring trans-vaginal ultrasounds to be given before abortions, the comedians made some great points about women's health issues:

"Really Congress? You held a congressional committee on reproductive rights and you did not invite any women. That would be like not inviting any men to a congressional committee debating the Maxim Top 100."

Poehler also pointed out that 98% of sexually active Catholic women say they've used birth control.

But all jokes aside, our favorite blonde funny girl pretty much summed it up with her final line... "Don't tell me what to do!"
