Tell Congress not to block affordable access to contraception for all women

Late last month, President Obama issued a new rule requiring health insurance companies to cover contraception with no co-pay. House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) said he will do everything and anything to overturn this decision. Almost all women — including 89% of Catholics — want to make their own decisions regarding contraception. Nevertheless, you can count on the fact that your member of Congress will be hearing from a vocal minority. This is just too important to sit on the sidelines.

If you believe every woman deserves access to affordable birth control, make sure Congress hears from you.

Never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake.
