Raising Black Women’s Voices For Health Reform - The Fight Is Not Over

black, african, american, health, reform, healthcare, women, gender, black, women, health, imperative, national, lobby, day



The fight for comprehensive reproductive health coverage for women now turns to the Senate! The debate on the Senate health care reform bill will face many amendments before it comes up for a final vote.

We need your help!

Join us in calling on our national leaders to defeat any and all amendments that impose additional restrictions on a woman’s access to reproductive health care, including abortion care:

  1. Sign our petition and join the millions of Americans who are speaking out to protect a woman’s health and access to abortion coverage.

    Ask your family and friends to sign too!Download the petition and return it to us by November 30, 2009.

  2. Join us on Wednesday, December 2, 2009, 9:30-5:30 p.m., in WashingtonD.C. for a National Lobby Day!We’re taking our message right to the hills of the Capitol. Hundreds of women from across the nation will come together to let our elected officials know that health care reform that does not protect the health and rights of women is unacceptable!

For more information, please contact Pascale Leone at 202-548-4000 or pleone@blackwomenshealth.org
