Dear John,
The Trump Administration is tightening chains around our reproductive rights.
They want to padlock the truth with a gag rule that will silence doctors and limit comprehensive, honest care—which will have a devastating impact on low-income patients and women of color. Planned Parenthood has just announced they are being forced from the TITLE X program because they refuse to submit to the gag rule.
Will you help NOW defy Donald Trump and stand with Planned Parenthood?
The gag rule makes it illegal for title X grantees to tell patients how or where to access abortion care and requires that they give patients who ask about abortion information about prenatal care instead. Several lower courts blocked the rule and one federal judge even called it a “ham-fisted approach to public health policy”. Despite those rulings, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit allowed it to move forward with no further appeals taken up by the court.
We may have lost this round, but this isn’t over.
Donald Trump is a misogynist bully. Please make a special contribution to NOW today so we can stay focused on mobilizing a grassroots that is committed to opposing Donald Trump—a commitment I know you and I share.
Please help NOW today.
These are the hours we must all stand together. There’s too much at stake to remain silent.
