As you are probably aware, we have reached a critical moment in the health care reform debate, and your urgent action is needed. Anti-choice senators introduced an amendment to the health care reform bill that would ban abortion coverage from all private and public insurance plans for millions of American women. A similar version of this ban was passed by the House of Representatives (known as the Stupak-Pitts amendment) last month. Fortunately, we still have a chance to stop this dangerous amendment from also passing in the Senate.
Please join us in sending an email to Colorado Senators Mark Udall and Michael Bennet to urge them to oppose the Nelson-Hatch Amendment.
Although both of our Colorado Senators have demonstrated support for excluding restrictive abortion access language in the Senate health care reform bill, they still need to hear from their constituents that we are counting on their continued support and "NO" vote on the Nelson-Hatch amendment. This dangerous amendment is expected to move quickly and would be the most serious restriction of access to abortion coverage in three decades. It is imperative that we contact our Senators’ offices today and make our voices heard.
