Last week, the Senate passed the resolution of disapproval to override a rule change made late in the Obama Administration that prevented states from redirecting Title X family planning funding away from abortion providers like Planned Parenthood to community health centers that provide comprehensive primary and preventive health care. The House passed it in mid-February. That means the next stop is the President’s desk for signature!
Thanks for standing with us and taking action on the alerts when we were urging both chambers to reverse that bad public policy. Even if you didn’t respond earlier, your help is needed now to send a follow-up message to your members.
Please take a moment to follow up with your legislators and encourage others to do so as well. We know it is important to say, “thank you” when a member votes for life as they often only hear criticism after a courageous vote. It is equally important that those who did not vote with us be aware that we are paying attention and that we expect better in the future. We have prepared a follow-up message that you can send by clicking here. The correct message which corresponds to your members’ votes will automatically appear once your address is processed.
Again, our thanks for all you do to build the culture of life in law. We will continue to keep you posted on important developments and future calls to action.
Together we will be heard!
Amy McInerny
Executive Director
