Thanks to the efforts of Planned Parenthood supporters like you, access to affordable birth control has passed the Senate — by a wide margin!

We are so close to making affordable birth control a reality again for the millions of low-income and college-age women who need it. All we need is for the House of Representatives to approve the Senate bill.

Call your representative today at 202-225-3121 to ensure our struggle for affordable birth control has a happy ending.

Calling your representative is quick and easy. Here are some ideas for what to say:

1. The U.S. House switchboard operator will answer first. Say your representative's name or where you live, and you'll be transferred quickly — usually to a staff person from your representative's office.



2. Give your name and say you are a constituent who lives in the representative's district.



3. Say that you support restoring access to affordable birth control.



4. Thank your representative for supporting women's health and family planning legislation in the past.



5. Say that you urge your representative to support the Senate-passed FY08 Emergency Supplemental that would restore access to affordable birth control to millions of low-income and college-age women nationwide.



6. Thank the staff member for passing along your message and say goodbye!

Calling your representative is really that simple, and it usually takes less than five minutes.

Restoring access to affordable birth control is a simple and popular decision Congress can make right now. It's a commonsense measure to reduce the number of unintended pregnancies — easy as A-B-C! But we can't afford to wait any longer. Millions of college-age and low-income women have lost access to affordable birth control — a basic form of health care. These women are counting on Congress to act now, and they are counting on your voice. Thank you for everything you do.
