Happening this week: August recess comes to an end / Taking action after the Trump administration forces Planned Parenthood health centers out of Title X birth control program.
 
Get Involved!
Start Here:

A few weeks back, the Trump administration forced Planned Parenthood health centers out of Title X — jeopardizing health care access for the more than 1.5 million patients served by those providers.

As lawmakers head back to Washington next week, we need to get loud and fight back — and to make sure that they're doing the job we elected them to do: Stand with Planned Parenthood and protect Title X.

We need to undo this dangerous gag rule, and we can't do it without you. We've updated our website with resources and the latest on what you need to know about when it comes to protecting Title X — click here to learn more.
 
More Time? Do This:
1
There's a bill moving in Congress right now that could protect access to health care for Title X patients. So, we need to know which members need a little extra push. Can you help us find out whether your member of Congress is with us in this fight?
2
Almost a year since Kavanaugh was appointed to the highest court in the land, the Trump administration continues to nominate federal judges — many who hold views that are hostile to reproductive health and rights — at record speed. Learn more on how you can help #ProtectOurCourts here.

It's hard work having to fight back and resist the dangerous agendas of anti-reproductive health politicians and the Trump administration. We want to support you amidst these fights — can you take a few moments to tell us how you're feeling?
Get Loud
The Trump administration is forcing Title X providers to withhold info from patients — and by doing so, it forced Planned Parenthood and other providers who serve nearly half of all Title X patients out of the program, threatening access to care for millions across the country.
