Outrageous!!!
The Department of Health and Human Services has decided to “redefine” contraception as “abortion”.
What? you say.
That’s right. The Religious Right is enforcing their beliefs on everyone and it’s going to adversely affect women who take contraception irregardless of whether they take it for birth control or not.
Go to Liz Marc’s live journal here to learn more and to get a link to the actual proposal. She also links to Twistedchick’s LJ (here it is) and TC provide links to the websites for both the House of Representatives and the Senate. I have already gone to both and sent my opinions on to both my local Representative and my Senator.
If you are a woman, I URGE you to go and make your opinion known, let the people in charge hear your voice. This is just election year politics and we shouldn’t let the Religious Right decide what we should be doing with OUR bodies.
