The House of Representatives passed a health care reform bill that includes an amendment by Reps. Stupak and Pitts that will effectively eliminate all insurance coverage for abortion. Currently, 85% of insurance plans in the private market currently cover these services. This ban on abortion coverage in health care reform is a direct attack on women’s health.

Now the Senate is set to begin debate on health care reform. We must ensure that the Senate bill does not include a similar amendment banning abortion coverage.

Please join us for a Rally on Wednesday, 12/2, to tell our legislators that we will not stand for attacks on women’s health in health care reform and to Stop the Abortion Coverage Ban!

The rally coincides with a National Day of Action & Stop Stupak-Pitts Event in Washington DC.

Please contact Lisa at NARAL Pro-Choice Wisconsin with any questions, to volunteer to collect petition signatures, to help with set-up at the event, or to add your group’s name to the list of sponsoring organizations: Lisa@prochoicewisconsin.org or (608) 287-0016.
