Help Reverse Bush's Final Attack on Reproductive-Health Services

The 43rd president's regulation is radically out of step with the way we live, as 98 percent of women use birth control at some point in their lives.
President Obama can reverse this outrageous law - but he needs your support. Urge Obama to make it a priority to fix this dangerous regulation once he takes office.
Dear President Obama,
I am writing to urge you to take a stand against one of President Bush's final acts in office - issuing an anti-choice regulation from the Department of Health and Human Services. The rule is a tremendous step back for women's access to reproductive-health care, including birth control, and you have the power to change it.
[Your comment here]
As you know, the dangerous regulation could undermine state laws that require hospitals to provide emergency contraception to rape survivors. It could allow health-care corporations to refuse services and referrals for birth control. And it could hurt low-income women in particular by allowing family-planning and Medicaid providers - even the receptionists at their front desks - to deny contraception services and referrals to women.
President Bush snuck this regulation through at the last moment. I know you have already stated your opposition to the regulation - thank you! Now, please use your office to repair the damage and help restore women's reproductive freedom.
Sincerely,
[Your name here]
