Bush Adminsitration Trying to control who has access to brith control email this discussion to a friend?

I don't normally pass these on, but this is important to everyone in the US - not just women.

The proposed regulation is an eleventh-hour attack before Bush's far-right appointees leave office. If enacted it would:
• Allow hospitals, HMOs and health plans to refuse to provide services or make referrals for birth control.
• Undermine state laws that require hospitals to provide emergency contraception to rape survivors, ensure pharmacies stock and fill women's prescriptions for birth control and mandate health plans that cover prescription medications to include birth control in their plans.
• Affect Medicaid and Title X family-planning programs by enabling staff at clinics to refuse contraception to women.

To sign the petition to bloakc this from going thorugh click here:

Federal regulations don't need approval from Congress, but your representative and senator can call on the Bush Administration to change course

Two things to keep in mind: first, like other "Fair Hiring" practices, this will have no force as they can still hire who they want simply by finding other reasons to hire who they want over who they don't want to hire; second, Bush's term will end in January and Barack Obama will rescind this order. A petition on a silly site won't stop Bush from doing this.

Go ahead and raise awareness and focus attention on this issue by all means, but don't think you can stop him because you can't.

they have had this petition (or should i say ones just like it) for years now.. so its not totally a last minute thing but like you said the next president will be dealing with it (hopefully) and it not even be something he would consider

Hurray for the fuhrer bush. Goddess I cant stand him and cant wait for him to be out of office. But would either one who is running for president be better? I doubt it.

i believe the need for contraception should be determined by medicine, as such use of contraceptives should always be on a therapeutic rather than the usual contraceptive use. whatever happened to self control and self discipline?

in criminal cases i believe it would not be an option either for whether the means are criminally done... it is still life.. who are we to stop it?
