Dear Friends,

Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade on June 24, 2022, we have seen an influx of attacks not only on abortion, but on contraceptive and sexual and reproductive health care in general.

That’s why it is so important that Congress act now ([link removed]) to provide the Title X Family Planning Program (Title X) with the funding it needs to keep up with the growing demand for family planning services.

In communities across the country, Title X funds help provide birth control and other family planning services to those who may otherwise struggle to afford such care. In doing so, Title X gives people the ability to lead healthy lives and achieve their goals. In addition to the attacks on reproductive health, this program has been underfunded for years—and communities across the country are at risk of not having a Title X clinic for birth control access if funding is not increased. Please take two minutes today to tell Congress to prioritize a funding increase for Title X.

Funding for Title X, and the rest of the federal government, runs out on December 16. In the meantime, congressional leaders are negotiating a year-end deal. The strain on safety-net family planning clinics will only get worse if Congress does not include a significant increase in Title X funding.

By increasing this funding, clinics that rely on Title X will be able to continue offering high-quality contraceptive services, preventive screenings, and health education to low-income people, people lacking health insurance, young people, and more—as they have done for the last 50 years.
Contact your member of Congress today! ([link removed])

Sincerely,
Tara

Tara Mancini
