Defending the right of every person to access the reproductive health care they need, when they need it, is a fundamental part of our mission.
That right is always at risk — but right now, it's under an all-out assault. You know that Donald Trump and Mike Pence are trying to dismantle Title X, the only federal program dedicated to affordable birth control and reproductive health care for people with low incomes.
The Trump administration recently forced Planned Parenthood health centers out of the Title X program. Planned Parenthood has participated in this program for
decades, providing critical reproductive health care to people who sometimes have nowhere else to access it.
You've fought back against the Trump administration with everything you've got. Your emails, your calls, the stories you've shared on social media, and the events you've planned
have made a difference.
We're so close to saving Title X, standing up for Planned Parenthood patients, and defending access to birth control — just LOOK at what this community has done together:

What we're doing is making a difference, but we can't let up now. Keep talking to your friends and family about what's at stake with Title X — spread the word on Facebook or Twitter, or forward this email.

Very soon, Congress could vote on a bill to stop the assault on Title X — but we'll only be able to pass protections for reproductive health care if we keep the pressure up. That's why I hope you'll take a few seconds to post about the fight on
Facebook or
Twitter, or forward this email
(if this email was forwarded to you, hi! Can you take 2 minutes to call your senators today? You can find the number and a sample script here).
Congress is back from summer recess on
Monday — that means things are about to heat up real fast. I'll be in touch soon with what happens next. In the meantime,
THANK YOU. It would be impossible to defend our mission without your help.
