    Every Congressperson knows and cares for women and families who depend on birth control. Every congressperson should sign and support the fight against the administration’s aim to condemn these women and their families to dependence on constantly failing tools referred to as abstinence and rhythm. My previously ‘good’ Catholic family suffered that failure and ultimately left the Church to escape that dependence.

    Thank you for your efforts to protect the reproductive choice rights of American women and men. As a woman who apparently has abortions every day (I am on the pill) for a variety of reasons, it is very comforting to know that someone in my government has my interests, as opposed to the interests of his/her political cronies, at heart.

    Thank you for participating in Below The Waist. It is a interesting time to say the least, and we need more voices to come forward.

    Thanks.
