Tell the Senate: Stop the attack on women.


Subject: Tell pro-choice senators to filibuster the House's all-out attack on women
Dear Friend,


If you think we have a solid pro-choice majority in the Senate, think again.


It's up to the Senate to stop the attacks on women now that the House has passed legislation to defund family planning services -- shamefully wiping out federal funding for Planned Parenthood's non-abortion health care for women, and pushing a bill that would allow hospitals to let pregnant women die rather than perform life-saving abortions.


But we cannot take for granted our ability to stop these bills in the Senate. Anti-choice forces in the Senate now out number pro-choice senators 46-40, and we need 41 votes to sustain a filibuster of the anti-woman, anti-choice bills coming out of the House.


I just signed a petition asking pro-choice senators to Filibuster any bill that introduces new restrictions on abortion or defunds Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest provider of reproductive health care to women.


Add your signature and encourage the Senate to stop the all-out attack on women:

Anti-choice supporters are all nothing more than bigoted fools who think women should be forced to follow religious priniciples, or those who want to keep women suppressed every way they can.

I'll definitely sign this.

Signed. I know too many people who were greatly helped by Planned Parenthood and I'm sad to see it possibly go.

Also, Creedo is a pretty good phone provider.

Unfortunately, it is a liberal company, but it's way better than anything else.
