call your senators

Many Senate leaders oppose abortion. But would the Senate actually vote down a measure to prevent unintended pregnancy?

The U.S. Senate will vote tomorrow on a budget amendment that would:

:: Ensure that insurance plans cover prescription birth control in the same way they pay for Viagra;

:: Fund teen-pregnancy prevention programs;

:: Educate women about the "morning-after" pill; and

:: Fund programs that help low-income women care for newborns.

This is an opportunity for anti-choice senators to end their divisive attacks on a woman's right to choose and support a commonsense proposal spearheaded by Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Harry Reid.
