Healthcare reform must Preserve Reproductive Freedom

Healthcare reform must Preserve Reproductive Freedom

The Issue

As you may know, they promised and they lied! Health care reform was not supposed to eliminate existing benefits.  The Stupak-Pitts Amendment effectively bans private insurance companies from offering abortion coverage.  The Affordable Health Care for America Act already prohibits federal funding for abortion. It's not right to impede private funding! The House-approved version of the bill is an unprecedented restriction of women's right to make private healthcare decisions.  Yes, stop Stupac Amendment, and any variations there of.  As well, no trigger, because triggers don't get pulled, no co-ops, or hammer.  Also, please, advocate for singlepayer healthcare, with Community First Choice Option and CLASS Act (Community Choice Act for the handicapped, elderly, autistic, disabled, etc.); H.R. 676 & S. 703, Senate Amendment 2837.  Please repeal this dangerous anti-choice provision and preserve women's right to reproductive options, now.
