Dear Indiana, When Republicans in Congress want to attack women, they go after Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood provides vital reproductive health care services to millions of women a year. With women's access to health care under constant assault by the radical right, Planned Parenthood is often the only place where women can go to get cancer screenings, prenatal care, STD testing, birth control and abortions. Republicans have already introduced bills in the House and the Senate to defund all of Planned Parenthood's non-abortion services.1 It's a blatant attempt to throw women and their families under the bus in order to score points for their extremist, anti-woman agenda. Tell Republicans: Don't play politics with women's lives. Keep your hands off Planned Parenthood. Click here to sign the petition. Planned Parenthood does invaluable work providing health care for women, and defending women's rights. When Republicans scheme to defund them, they're not just threatening women's lives, they're also aggressively attacking one of most important progressive advocates for women in the country. The assault on Planned Parenthood will be relentless in this Republican Congress. We have to show that every time they attack, we'll fight back. If enough of us stand up, we can make it clear that the Republican party will pay a political price if it wages war on women in order to pander to its anti-choice base. Tell Congressional Republicans: Stand up for women, not your extremist base. Don't defund Planned Parenthood.

Thanks for standing with us to defend them.
