Fight Back Against Stupak!
We are making it loud and clear to Congress that the Bart Stupak (D-MI)/Joe Pitts (R-PA) Amendment to the House health care reform bill that bans abortion coverage is not acceptable. To make it easier, we are asking you to sign a petition that we will fax to Senators' offices. We must keep it off the Senate bill.

Take Action to Protect a Women's Health Clinic under Attack in Charlotte, NC
Family Reproductive Health, in Charlotte, North Carolina needs our help now. Operation Save America is trying to shut down this vital women's health care and abortion provider. Operation Save America leader Flip Benham and his followers - including a registered sex offender -- set up a tall ladder to peer over the clinic's 6-foot privacy fence and scream into the clinic with an amplified sound system. Protesters are allowed to swarm cars and come within inches of doctors and women patients as they enter and exit the driveway of the clinic.

Help Dr. Carhart and his Embattled Clinic Today
Help keep embattled clinics nationwide, such as Dr. Carhart's clinic, safe and open. Please send half my tax-deductible contribution to Dr. Carhart to help defray extraordinary legal expenses and security cost in the face of Operation Rescue's campaign. The other half will support the Feminist Majority Foundation's efforts to help target clinics nationwide.
