About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

Reproductive rights are human rights. By fighting bills such as H.R. 358 and S.877  we will support people's rights to choose their reproductive futures. We would also help preserve important organizations such as Planned Parenthood, which provide women with accessible birth control, sex education, and support.

The bills, which would "mend the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act to modify special rules relating to coverage of abortion services under such Act" would in fact would allow hospitals to refuse to provide a woman emergency, lifesaving abortion care, even if she could die without it.

This bill will not only restrict women's access to abortion but it would also jeopardize their lives.

Fight "Let Women Die" Bill

Greetings,

I just signed the following petition addressed to: Senators Kirsten Gillibrand and Charles E. Schumer.

----------------
H.R. 358 and S. 877 have been recently introduced to the Senate. H.R. has already passed in the House with a frightening majority--we can not let it pass in the Senate.

These bills are severely damaging to the health and safety of women seeking abortions, because not only do they restrict women's long-sought after access to safe and legal abortions, but they also put women's lives in danger.

Reproductive rights are human rights, and an important part of our lives. By fighting and oppressive bills we will support women's rights. We would also help preserve important organizations such as Planned Parenthood, which provide women with accessible birth control, sex education, and support.

I would like to see these bills fought by my representatives to prevent them from passing in the Senate.

Sincerely,

[Your name]
