This post is along the same lines of my conscientious objector post of a few days ago, but just wanted to pass this information along as I will be unable to attend, but some of you may want to.
Emergency Contraception
Rape Victims Can't Wait!
Last month lawmakers let the clock run out on rape victims.
With the defeat of a bill that would have required that all publicly funded hospitals offer emergency contraception (EC or the "morning-after" pill) to rape victims, dozens of women will not get the standard care they need to prevent an unintended pregnancy from rape.
Let elected officials know that rape victims can't wait!
We must work to make sure our elected officials understand the devastating realities that rape victims face in crisis, and why they need EC without delay and without judgment.
