The Future of Choice and Women's Health is in Your Hands!

When it passed a historic health care reform bill, the House also adopted the Stupak amendment, a dangerous piece of legislation that would ban abortion from private and public insurance plans for millions of American women. Fortunately, the fight for women's health didn't end in the House, and our sharp focus is now on the Senate. We are demanding that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid ensure that language similar to the Stupak amendment does not become part of the Senate health care reform bill.

It's time for our leaders to stand up and ensure that women's health is treated fairly in health care reform.

President Obama, Senate Majority Leader Reid, and Speaker Pelosi have the power to put a stop to the discriminatory Stupak ban — and it's up to us to help them do it. Fill out the form below to sign our petition and join the millions of Americans who are speaking out to protect women's health and the right to choose.

Signing this petition is an important first step. Add your name to the growing list of people who firmly oppose the Stupak amendment.

I agree.

We are Americans who are concerned about the health of the women of the United States, and we applaud your efforts to ensure affordable, quality health care coverage for all. We call upon you to use the powers of your office and your powers of persuasion to ensure that women's health is treated fairly in health care reform. Women must be able to purchase private or public health insurance that offers comprehensive reproductive health care, including abortion care. We are working diligently to ensure that health reform passes and that it protects women's right to purchase the health insurance plan of their choice.
