Dear John,
Earlier this month, I had the honor of testifying before Congress on the devastating impact of the Hyde Amendment on the communities I provide care for. You can read my statement or watch my testimony here.
We called on Congress to end Hyde, which for 44 years has denied coverage for abortion care to people enrolled in federally sponsored insurance plans, like Medicaid, military health insurance, and federal employee health plans.
Speaking out against dangerous and inequitable policies like Hyde is exactly what PRH trained me and physicians across the country to do. We will not be silent as our patients’ rights are denied.
Will you join me on the frontlines of expanding access to reproductive health care by making a gift to PRH today?
With your support, we will work to end discriminatory policies like Hyde that hurt the communities I care for. Abortion coverage bans are only one way that an individual’s ability to decide what is right for their lives and their bodies is denied.
Help us break down barriers to reproductive health care in 2021 by donating before December 31.
Access to care shouldn’t depend on how much money you make or where you live. Now is our opportunity to undo the destructive policies of the past, take the steps necessary to address inequality, and build a new future that prioritizes the agency and autonomy of patients.
Thank you for supporting physician advocates and powering our pursuit of equal access to health care.
With gratitude,
Jamila Perritt, MD MPH FACOG
President & CEO
