Dear Friends,
The Bush administration is at it again — threatening reproductive freedom and women's health. Their latest new proposal from the Dept of Health and Human Services could jeopardize health care for millions of women.
That's why I'm working with my colleagues in the Senate, and my friend Cecile Richards, the president of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, to stop them.
Cecile and I wrote an article that is appearing in The New York Times today, alerting the nation to what will happen if the Bush administration moves ahead with the HHS rule.
Those who are anti-choice, anti-family planning see the period of transition between administrations as a window of opportunity. In its final months, they're pressing the Bush administration to do one ridiculous thing after another. We need Planned Parenthood to make sure that common sense wins out over ideology. One day, we'll live in a world where Planned Parenthood can simply go about its work providing women with essential health care information and services.
But, that day isn't here yet. Until it arrives, you and I will have to keep counting on Planned Parenthood to speak up and challenge dangerous ideas that undermine women's health. And Planned Parenthood will have to keep counting on us to support and sustain its vitally important work at critical moments like this.
Sincerely,
Hillary Clinton
