Stop the Abortion Mandate

from our friends at Stop the Abortion Mandate:

36,187 pro-life Americans united in an unprecedented fashion for the "Stop the Abortion Mandate" webcast event -- and the timing could not have been better.

News is breaking in Washington that the House of Representatives WILL be voting before August recess on the health care reform bill that would:
* Result in the biggest expansion of abortion since the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision...
* Force YOU to pay for abortions through your tax dollars -- something 71% of Americans oppose...
* Implement a cornerstone of FOCA -- the Freedom of Choice Act -- that would lead to a massive, taxpayer-subsidized abortion industry bailout...
* Force you and virtually all Americans into health plans with mandatory abortion coverage (health care reform legislation must explicitly exclude abortion in writing or else abortion automatically becomes a minimum required benefit.)

It is very important that you -- and record numbers of people -- do 2 things RIGHT NOW:
1. E-MAIL your Representative and 2 Senators and tell them in no uncertain terms: "Keep abortion out of health care! Any health care reform bill must include language that explicitly excludes abortion." It's easy to do -- just go to: http://www.stoptheabortionmandate.com/email
2. CALL the Washington office and the local office of your Representative and 2 Senators to say: "Keep abortion out of health care. I urge you to oppose any health care bill unless abortion is explicitly excluded." Get tips and look up your elected officials at: http://www.stoptheabortionmandate.com/call

If each of us does these two things today -- and encourages others to do these things -- we can make a powerful impact at a crucial moment.

After you've sent your e-mails and made your calls, be sure to listen to the entire recorded replay of the webcast at: http://www.StopTheAbortionMandate.com

You can listen online even if you have a dial-up Internet connection or you can download the MP3 file to listen on your iPod or computer or burn CDs to share with others.

The powerful presentations from 19 respected and nationally-known leaders will fill you with hope!
