Help make up Planned Parenthood's lost funds →
Since news of the Susan G Komen Foundation for the Cure’s decision to stop funding breast cancer screenings through Planned Parenthood, individual donors have contributed over $400,000 to PP to make up for lost funds. Last year SGK gave Planned Parenthood a $580,000 grant. How wonderful would it be if Planned Parenthood received more in donations to fund their vital programs in response to...

Five Myths About Planned Parenthood →
but of course you all already know this- right? right?
sassyscientist:
My favorite part is Glenn Beck saying only hookers use Planned Parenthood (even if that were true- hookers don’t deserve health care?). I hope you never have daughters, Glenn.

sassyscientist:
A brilliant article, but so difficult to read due to it’s, painful, painful truth. In many ways, I feel like it is speaking directly to me. I am the white, middle-class daughter of leftist, hippy, second-wave feminist parents (from San Fransisco, no less)- do I consider myself anti-racist? of course. Do I do much to try to end racism? not really.

Washington, DC: Stand Up for Women's Health Rally →
On April 7, Planned Parenthood will join with Senate and House leaders, celebrities, activists, and allies from all over the country to lead a Stand Up for Women’s Health Rally. Join thousands of women’s health supporters on Capitol Hill as we carry the message that women’s health is NON-NEGOTIABLE.

“(I am proud of) trying to defund Planned Parenthood and make sure they didn’t...”

….Yes, we must stop the evil Planned Parenthood from providing cheap cancer screenings. Very “pro-life,” Governor. Are Planned Parenthood workers unionized? Maybe that’s his problem…
Senate Rejects House Bill De-Funding Planned... →
Good news! But don’t think that this will end here… The war of reproductive freedom is still being fought all over the country, and some anti-choice members of congress are preparing to press the issue further.
Personally, I will never forgive the House leadership for even considering such cuts.

Dear Tracey,
Crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs) provide false, inaccurate information to women experiencing an unplanned pregnancy. Their tactics are shameful.
They lie to clients about how far along in a pregnancy…

The budget is now up for debate in the US Senate- please urge your senators (especially Democratic Senators) to vote no to any cuts to family planning assistance or anything barring Planned Parenthood from federal funding. We need to stop this crap now- I don’t want to have to be making another site to donate in Harry Reid’s name next!

damn-I hate to say it, but anti-choice activists are kind of clever (idiots, but clever ones). We need to be more clever. But how?
We did it!
1000 ‘attending’ on facebook! Holy crap! That’s at least $5000 for Planned Parenthood, and 1000 little thank you notes to Rep. Boner.
Next goal: 2000! If you haven’t already donated, please do so now- and tell your friends!
2 week Stop Gap Spending Bill passed by the house →
This is just a 2 week spending bill so that the government doesn’t shut down while congress debates the budget. Still- it does NOT include the Pence amendment, so that is good? I’m not sure if it still eliminates all Title X funding. Eventually, the Senate will have to vote on the House budget- so the fight is not over! Stay tuned!

The G.O.P.’s Abandoned Babies →
The US leads the Western world in infant mortality rates- and the new budget is only going to make it worse.
Like a sign at the NYC rally said: Republicans care about fetuses… until they become women.
Actually, perhaps that should say “until they get born”- for either gender.
disgusting. I’m angry all over again.
What else has the GOP cut?
Let’s take a look at some highlights:
Overwhelmingly, it’s assistance for low-income families, education, and health care access. Very “pro-life,” John.
Multi-family Rural Housing, Revitalization Program -$25M- ensures that sufficient resources are available in order to continue to provide safe and affordable housing for very low- and low-income residents.

Yesterday I posted this link urging women to send their used pads and tampons to Rep. Bobby Franklin- the Georgia representative that introduced a bill to investigate all miscarriages as potential homicides.
Obviously, I enjoy fucking with annoying politicans, but ladies- do NOT actually mail your used tampons- that is illegal (and gross).
Instead, I DO urge you to mail photographic evidence of...
