Urge Your Senator to Protect Women's Reproductive Health Care in Health Care Reform
The time has come in our fight for health care reform when women and their reproductive health care are being written out of health care reform legislation. This is unacceptable and your help is urgently needed.
As you are reading this, Republican members of the Senate Finance Committee are demanding the introduction of health care reform language that will strip women's access to abortion. We must not let this happen because comprehensive reproductive health care is basic health care for women.
But we need your help to make sure that it doesn't happen — tell your Senator to oppose this harmful provision!
It is an unprecedented time in our fight for health care reform. A time when our elected officials should be focused on expanding health care coverage, not stripping benefits away that women already have. Republican leaders on the Senate Finance Committee are demanding the adoption of a harmful provision that would have a devastating impact on women.
The provision would lead to dramatic changes in the health care benefits many women have now as well as for the many women who currently have no or minimal health care coverage.
Especially in this time of economic need, women need more — not less — access to the full range of comprehensive reproductive health care services.
Time is running out — and we need you to help protect women's access to comprehensive reproductive health services in health care reform. Your actions will make a difference.
Thank you for joining us in this critical battle.
Sincerely,
Judy Waxman
Vice President for Health and Reproductive Rights
National Women's Law Center
