We need genuine health-care reform that helps to save lives — not to diminish and destroy them. Please act now! Contact your U.S. Representative and Senators and urge them to fix these bills with the pro-life amendments that would effectively exclude mandated abortion coverage, keep longstanding policies against abortion funding and continue to support conscience rights.

MESSAGE to U.S. Senators:
“Please support an amendment to incorporate longstanding policies against abortion funding and in favor of conscience rights. If these serious concerns are not addressed, please oppose the final bill.”
MESSAGE to U.S Representatives:
“Please support the Stupak Amendment that addresses essential pro-life concerns on abortion funding and conscience rights in the health-care reform bill. Help ensure that the Rule for the bill allows a vote on this amendment. If these serious concerns are not addressed, please oppose the final bill.”
