We just heard that we can score a major victory for the world's poorest women - help us make it happen!
Sens. Boxer (D-CA) and Snowe (R-ME) plan to hold a Senate vote to repeal President Bush's appalling "global gag rule," which blocks U.S. funds from going to any overseas health clinic if it uses its own, private, non-U.S. funds to provide legal abortion services, give referrals, or even take a public pro-choice position.
We've been working to end this extreme policy ever since Bush enacted it on his first day in office. With Congress now in pro-choice hands, we have our best chance in years to end this misguided policy - and a vote could happen as early as tomorrow.
Take action now and urge your senators to vote to repeal the global gag rule. After you take action, be sure to forward this message to at least five friends. Let's make sure that senators in all 50 states hear from pro-choice supporters!
Thank you for taking action today to ensure that women around the world aren’t denied critical health services because of horrendous Bush policies.
My best,
Nancy Keenan
President
NARAL Pro-Choice America
