Slightly Unhinged

As important as health care reform is, we can’t let it come at the expense of women’s reproductive rights.  If the Senate adopts the same Stupak-Pitts amendment that passed in the House bill:

• It will be virtually impossible for private insurance companies participating in the new system to offer abortion coverage to women.
• This would have the effect of denying women the right to use their own personal, private funds to purchase an insurance plan with abortion coverage in the new health system — a radical departure from the status quo.

Please take a moment to join the more than 33,000 pro-choice Americans who understand that we must fight to protect women’s reproductive rights and make sure that this abortion-coverage ban is not included in the Senate bill.
