[Urgent] [Action] Stop the Conscience Rule
Reposted from Planned Parenthood: HALP!
Hey y'all? Did you know that in addition to her restrictive stance on abortion, Sarah Palin is an honest to God clinic blocker? Her "feminist" stance, if it fooled anyone before, shouldn't now!
that said, on to the main post....
We have just over 24 hours left for our effort to stop the Bush administration's latest attack on women's health care. We need you to act now, before the midnight deadline on September 25.
The Bush administration has issued a rule that would limit the rights of patients to receive complete and accurate reproductive health information when they visit a health care provider. It's more of the Bush administration's bad medicine, and this is our last chance to stop it.
This new rule could allow individual health care providers to redefine abortion to include the most common forms of birth control - and then refuse to provide these basic services. A woman's ability to manage her own health care is at risk of being compromised by politics and ideology. We have until September 25 at midnight to voice our opposition.
While the country's attention is focused on the upcoming election, the current president seems determined to do as much damage as he can before he leaves office. We have just one more day to voice our opposition to the Bush administration rule. Please take a moment right now to add your name to the hundreds of thousands of others who will not stand by and let this happen without a fight.
It is during crises like this when your support for Planned Parenthood and the people we serve is most needed. Click here to add your voice.
Thank you for standing with us, and please keep an eye out for future updates on this vital issue.
Sincerely,
Cecile Richards, President
Planned Parenthood Federation of America
