NO employer should be able to impose their beliefs about birth control or any aspect of our health care on their employees. Click the link to add your name to the +Planned Parenthood banner that will be displayed outside the +U.S. Supreme Court on 25 MAR 14.....
On March 25, lawyers that represent for-profit corporations will stand
before the Supreme Court and argue that corporations should have the
legal right to deny their workers access to insurance coverage for birth
control based on their boss's personal religious beliefs.
It's outrageous. You know it as well as we do: birth control is basic, preventive health care. Yet people with views that are far outside the mainstream are still trying to take this benefit away from women — and we must fight back. So we're gathering at the Supreme Court to make sure the Justices hear us loud and clear: health care decisions belong to us, not our bosses. Even if you can't join us in person, we need you with us. In fact we're setting a goal that, along with our coalition partners, we will gather 200,000 names. Just click here to automatically add your name to the giant banner we'll be unfurling on the steps of the Supreme Court.  The added danger in these cases is the slippery slope they could create. If the Supreme Court rules in favor of the bosses it could open the door for corporations to make other important medical decisions for their employees, such as access to vaccinations, sexual health screenings, end of life care — anything they claim to find personally objectionable. This is a watershed moment that could have an impact for generations to come — so it's critical that we show the Supreme Court and our opponents that we won't sit silently while they debate rolling back our rights. It will be such a powerful statement to have 200,000 names on the steps of the Supreme Court with the 1,000 activists who will be there in person. We need 200,000 people to add their names so we can make a big impact on the 25th — will you be one? Stand with us — add your name right now. And this is just the beginning. In the weeks to come, we'll be calling on you to help us spread the word, and stand together to show the Court just how many people are counting on them to protect our basic right to health care. Thanks for joining us at this critical time — I'm glad we have you with us.
