Run a Pro-Choice Anti-McCain Ad During the RNC Convention!
Across America, anti-choice elected officials and activists are working to ban abortion. From state legislatures to the campaign for the White House, efforts are underway to treat women like criminals and to prosecute trained medical doctors.
Banning abortion won't stop abortions, it will just make them extremely dangerous.
The How Much Time Campaign has created a great tv ad that you can pay as little as $50 to run it in an area of your choosing! Do it now to run it during the RNC convention!
To find out how, go here.
