Restore Affordable Birth Control
Target: U.S. CongressSponsored by: NARAL Pro-Choice America
Did you know that a federal law from 2005 inadvertently caused prescription birth control prices to soar? This drastic increase in cost has affected university health centers and family-planning clinics around the country, making prescription contraception unaffordable for many college students and lower income women! College students around the country prompted Congress to introduce a bipartisan solution to restore access to affordable birth control. While the cost of the original legislation adds up every day, this new bill won't cost taxpayers a single penny. The Prevention Through Affordable Access Act was introduced by Representatives from both parties who agree that access to affordable contraception is the most effective way to prevent unintended pregnancy. Urge Your Representative to Cosponsor the Prevention Through Affordable Access Act

The decision to have a child in these days is very difficult. Putting new children into an uncertain future on an overcrowded planet with a dying ecology and a destroyed athmosphere is something very difficult. Therefore everybody must have the chance to take control.

Because they are many people whose beliefs allow family planning (which is now the same as abortion, which I and many others may not agree with), and they should not be discriminated on the high cost of birth control. Please help!

Birth control fees should be available to those who need assistance. Our nation is becoming over populated as it is. Please help!

I'm a poor graduate student who needs birth control to manage PCOS. Student health insurance may only cover a small portion of my $54/month prescription.

Our bodies belong to no one else but ourselves. Thus, controlling what happens inside and outside our bodies is no one's business but our own.
