Women's health is under attack, and your voice can make a difference. Pledge to protect women's health and let legislators know that women's health matters.

Birth control is basic health care. Yet attacks on contraception are on the rise in the United States and around the world.For many women, access to reliable methods of family planning is increasingly difficult. Anti-family planning, anti-choice hardliners continue to block access to commonsense measures that prevent unintended pregnancy and therefore reduce the need for abortion.

These attacks include:

• Funding cuts for family planning services for women most in need
• Restrictions on access to emergency contraception in hospitals and pharmacies, denying many women a second chance to avoid unintended pregnancy
• Opposition to insurance coverage for contraception

Tell 10 friends to pledge to protect women's health!

Sample Letter for Campaign

Dear [ Decision Maker ] ,

As a suppoter of women's health, I pledge to:

Protect access to birth control. Birth control is basic health care, and all women should have access to affordable birth control.

Protect access to all health care options. Women and their doctors should be trusted to make health care decisions that are right for them.
