Planned Parenthood ?@PPact May 30
We're welcoming @GovernorOMalley to the presidential field! Here's why: http://ppact.io/2016-Candidates .



"When we invest in health, dignity & well-being of women, as Planned Parenthood has done & will keep doing, we're building a stronger future."
– Martin O'Malley (2013)

Has a long record of working to protect women’s access to legal and safe abortion across the state of Maryland

Supports access to affordable birth control, including the ACA mandate that covers contraception without copay

Signed the Family Planning Works Act into law, which ensures low-income women in Maryland have access to free pregnancy counseling, contraception, as well as cancer and STI screenings
