"...when the Republicans vote for this bill today, they will be voting to say that women can die on the floor of health care providers ... it's just appalling," -- Nancy Pelosi
Lucas --
We have to act fast.
House Republicans are set to vote on a bill that would go even farther than Republicans' previous efforts to restrict women's access to reproductive health care.
This GOP bill would allow emergency rooms to refuse women life-saving healthcare. Pundits are calling it the "Let Women Die" act.
We must act immediately to call out the right-wing Republicans behind this assault on women. We've set a goal of raising $100,000 for the DCCC Women's Health Rapid Response Fund so we can hold these Republicans accountable.
Please make an urgent contribution of $3 or more to the DCCC Women's Health Rapid Response Fund. Your generous support will send a powerful show of grassroots strength against the Republicans' extreme agenda.
Instead of focusing on jobs or the economy, this vote will mark the seventh time this year House Republicans have chosen to undermine women's access to health care.
First, it was Republicans redefining rape to deny health care coverage. Now, they want to allow hospitals to turn away women in life-or-death situations. Plus, for the first time ever, this bill would restrict how women with private insurance can spend their own private dollars in purchasing health care. It has to stop.
Help us send a message to Speaker Boehner, Majority Leader Cantor, and the rest of the House Republicans that their repeated insistence on restricting women's access to health care has consequences.
