Phone Bank to Stop the Abortion Coverage Ban in Health Care Reform
Phone Banks at NARAL Pro-Choice NY this Tuesday and Thursday!
On Saturday, November 7th we watched as anti-choice politicians passed the Stupak-Pitts amendment to the health care reform bill, which will make it virtually impossible for private insurance companies that participate in the new system to offer abortion coverage to women. Now we need your help to stop the abortion coverage ban!
We will be calling pro-choice activists around the country urging them to contact their Senator(s) at this critical time. Join us for a phone bank:
