Our representatives in Washington are hard at work these days on health care reform legislation. We must make sure they don't make any more concessions to the anti-choice pressure they're feeling now.
You can make sure that American women don't lose ground - including losing abortion coverage they already have - in the new health system.
Reproductive-health care should be treated like any other health care service in the new system - not singled out for exclusion on political grounds. Speak out by writing your senators now!
We took action on “Don't Let Anti-Choice Politics Put Women's Health in Jeopardy”:

Please don't use women's health as a "hot button" issue to move the agenda to the right!

It is a fact that women still make significantly less money for the same job than men. Also the standard of living for women and children goes down after divorse while the standard of living for men goes up. THe right wing of this country does not support children after they are born and therefore they should have nothing to say about abortion. They are suppoprting never ending war and the murder of physicians based solely on their specialty.

All medical procedures are between the patient and their doctor. The govt has no business in the medical exam room! Stay out!
