TAKE ACTION! FIGHT STUPAK!!!

Posted November 17, 2009 by meredith_stern in Reproductive Justice

Check out info on the STUPAK part of the current health care bill.
Women are denied access to abortion coverage- the bill actually denies coverage to women who already have it. Abortion is a procedure 1 out of every 3 women have at some point in their lives. Males' reproductive health coverage remains in the bill- men still have access to Viagra, prostate cancer coverage, male infertility, vasectomies, etc.

(a Great article is here:)
