Dear Friend,
EXCITING NEWS!
This morning, our U.S. Senator, Kirsten Gillibrand, joined
other Democratic women members of the Senate on the floor to
highlight the importance of women's health in health care
reform. Senator Gillibrand focused specifically on women's
health centers and the work they do to reduce unintended
pregnancy and STIs. She lamented that the critical work that
women's health centers provide is being politicized as a part of
the debate. She said we must safeguard access to women's health
clinics, citing that 400,000 people in New York State receive
health care from Planned Parenthood. The strategy for reform
must protect these critical services.
It was FANTASTIC! You can view her remarks

fight!
