Getting so excited for tomorrow's Rally for Women's Health! Join Planned Parenthood, Choice USA, NARAL Pro-Choice America, the National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW), ACLU, the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism, and many other leading organizations in a united show of opposition to extreme proposals in Congress that take preventive health care and family planning away from women and undermine women’s access to the full range of reproductive-health care, including abortion.
Meet us at 11:00am tomorrow, April 7th, on the National Mall in front of the Capitol Building Reflecting Pool between 3rd & 4th St SW in Washington DC. Map & further details available here. For those who cannot attend in person, we will be live blogging the entire event right here.
