Tomorrow, the Senate plans to hold a debate on confirming Gov. Kathleen Sebelius as secretary of health and human services. Unless we make our voices heard loud and clear, right now, anti-choice senators may succeed in blocking her confirmation. Tell your senators to confirm Gov. Sebelius as secretary of health and human services.
Anti-choice activists have been pressuring their allies in the Senate to block Gov. Sebelius' confirmation — and those allies are playing along. They've already managed to postpone the vote to confirm her, and now they hope to stop her altogether.
Gov. Sebelius is a leading health policy expert, a popular governor, and a strong advocate for increased health care access. But none of that matters to the radical groups that have decided to protest her nomination. They are dead set on blocking any nominee with a history of supporting access to full reproductive health care services.
After eight long years of attacks on women's health care and with more and more families left uninsured, we face a true crisis. Countless women and their families are struggling to afford quality health care during these difficult times, and we can't afford to let anti-choice extremists use their influence in the Senate to block confirmation of Gov. Sebelius. Please stand with me now in urging your senators to vote for confirmation.
Thank you so much for your quick response — by speaking up now, you're helping us move toward real health care reform.
Sincerely,
Cecile Richards, President
Planned Parenthood Action Fund
