  Take Action: Write your Representative today!  
     
   
     
  Urge your Representative to vote NO on Rep. Ryan’s budget.  
     
  Take Action

Action is needed now! The House of Representatives could vote as early as tomorrow on the Ryan budget. Tell your Representative to vote NO on the Ryan Budget.

Wondering if you should take action? Think about this.

Ryan’s budget would:

  • Deny millions of women and families access to affordable health insurance by repealing the Affordable Care Act.

  • Undermine core safety net programs that women count on by slashing Medicaid and SNAP (food stamps) and turning them into block grants.
  • Slash funding for K-12 education, Pell Grants, job training, and domestic violence prevention.

Sincerely,
