Tell your Members of Congress to urge congressional leadership to include an amendment to end the abortion coverage ban in a final bill the President signs into law.
In the past three weeks, you’ve sent over 54,000 emails to Members of Congress asking them to end the abortion coverage ban on servicewomen who become pregnant due to rape. Just this week, the Senate affirmed our efforts by voting unanimously to pass the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and it includes Senator Jeanne Shaheen‘s amendment that would end this extreme policy.
But we’re not there yet. Negotiations are taking place right now on the final bill for the President to sign.
Tell your Members of Congress to urge congressional leadership to include this critical amendment in the final bill.
We are closer than ever to removing the abhorrent ban on abortion coverage for servicewomen and military dependents that have experienced rape or incest. This unfair policy forces them to pay for the abortion care they need, unlike their civilian counterparts who also depend on the federal government for health insurance. The only thing in the way of ending this unjust ban is some anti-choice Members of Congress who are willing to play politics with the women that serve this nation.
Don’t let anti-choice Members of Congress negotiate away abortion coverage for servicewomen who become pregnant due to rape.
Tell your Members of Congress to urge their leaders to include the critical Shaheen amendment in a final bill for the President to sign into law.
Congressional leaders will finish their negotiations at any moment.
Make sure they hear voice today.
Thanks for all you do to protect women’s reproductive health.
