Take action to support women's health care rights Celebrate NYAC's Sweet 16 - In Washington, DC TONIGHT! Webinar: Talking Circle - LGBTQ Latino Youth & HIV - Dec. 8 @ 3P ET December 15th deadline for NYAC job posting Take action to support women's health care rights This week the Senate is debating their version of the health care reform act. Conservatives are trying to use the Stupak-Pitts Amendment as an opportunity to use health care reform to deny millions of women access to abortion coverage. However, abortion is a personal decision and a private matter between women and their health care provider, and not one that should be politicized in health care reform. Health care reform should increase our access to care, not further restrict it. Click here to take action! Celebrate NYAC's Sweet 16 - In Washington, DC!
