PLEASE JOIN ME IN SIGNING THIS OPEN LETTER TO SUPPORT WOMEN’S HEALTH
The world’s largest breast cancer organization, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, is cutting off its financing of breast cancer screening and education programs run by Planned Parenthood affiliates.
Please sign and reblog to save women’s lives! Each voice counts more than ever.
A supporter sent this to Planned Parenthood. We couldn’t have said it better. If you agree, sign on:
This is for all the anti-choice, anti-women people out there.
Listen up.
You can spend every minute of every day trying to force the rest of us to live by your ideology. You can go after federal funds for health care and pressure private organizations like the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation to stop funding breast cancer screenings for poor women. You can try to make it impossible to get birth control.
But you know what you can’t do? You can’t win. You can’t break us. Planned Parenthood isn’t just a family of organizations. It’s a movement. It’s women and men of all ages who believe that health care — including reproductive health care — is a basic human right. We are millions strong. We are everywhere. We act, we give, and we do whatever it takes to make sure that Planned Parenthood is there for the women, men, and teens who rely on them.
Know this: When you go after Planned Parenthood and the people they serve, you go after ME. I stand with Planned Parenthood. I stand with them against anyone who wants to stop women from receiving the health care they need. I stand with them today, tomorrow, and for as long as I need to.

Mayor Mike Bloomberg, has made a generous offer to match donations to the Planned Parenthood Breast Health Fund to ensure that every woman, everywhere has access to lifesaving breast cancer screening services. Mayor Bloomberg will match every donation, up to $250,000, to help Planned Parenthood health centers provide breast health education, screenings, and referrals for mammograms to women who very often have nowhere else to turn.
