Birth Control: Don't Let McCain Take It Away

We must keep the momentum going as we get ever closer to the election. I am counting on you, today. Please join NARAL Pro-Choice America immediately and help us ensure that the anti-choice, anti-birth control candidate, John McCain, does not become president.

Click here to become a member of NARAL Pro-Choice America today.


Dottye, in honor of the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, our goal is to recruit 73 new members each week until Election Day. Be one of this week’s 73 new members - you will be making us stronger both politically and financially, enabling us to do our work at every level to protect the right to choose.

Pro-choice Republican and Independent women - key blocs of swing voters in this year’s election - are less likely to support John McCain for president when they learn he has repeatedly voted against allowing women to obtain birth control. What concerns these voters even more about McCain’s record is that John McCain voted to ban abortion for many women, even in cases of rape, incest, or when a woman's life is in danger.

It’s critical that we contact the almost 200,000 pro-choice women we identified in 2004 and 2006 in battleground states who will be this year's swing voters and tell them about the threats to choice we can expect if John McCain picks up where George W. Bush left off.


Become a member of NARAL Pro-Choice America today to protect choice from McCain and elect pro-choice Sen. Barack Obama.

Not yet convinced to join? Look at McCain’s rigid, anti-choice track record. What hasn’t he already tried to take away from women?

  • Birth control? McCain is against a woman’s access to it, and he voted more than 20 times to block it.
  • Health-care coverage? McCain opposes equal access to it. He voted to eliminate Title X and deny millions of women basic health-care services ranging from birth control to breast cancer screenings.
  • The right to choose? McCain won't protect it. In fact, he's voted against choice 125 times out of 130 opportunities since 1983. And he said Roe v. Wade should be overturned!

Join NARAL Pro-Choice America for $10 or more today to be one of the 73 who will help protect the liberties and access to basic health care that McCain would deny to women.

Please act on this opportunity to join today as part of our Membership Drive for Choice and be one of this week’s 73 for choice. The future of women’s reproductive freedom is hanging in the balance!

Sincerely,

Nancy Keenan
