More about Reproductive Rights

Sign the Pledge for Reproductive Freedom

Women across the country have lost a true champion. The cold-blooded murder of Dr. George Tiller in church this past Sunday is a stark reminder that women's bodies are still a battleground, and health care professionals are on the front lines.

We are angered. We are saddened. And we will not be silenced. Please join us.

We must all commit to redouble our efforts to maintain safe and legal access to abortion and birth control, and our concerted actions will make a difference.

Sign the Pledge for Reproductive Freedom

After taking action, please support our work!

Action Needed:

Sign the pledge to re-affirm your commitment to reproductive freedom and find out what else you can do to help. When you sign the pledge, you can add your voice to the chorus demanding that the Justice Department and the Department of Homeland Security treat the murder and intimidation of health care workers as domestic terrorism.

I'm asking you to do as many of the following as you possibly can, and forward this message to your friends and networks.

Sign the pledge and pass it on: re-affirm your commitment to reproductive freedom! Speak out, stay informed, get involved locally and get involved online. Everyone who signs the pledge will receive information on how to help and get connected to the campaign.

Send a message to the Justice Department and the Department of Homeland Security: urge them to treat these murders in the same way they treat other acts of politically-motivated domestic terrorism and urge them to put the full resources of both departments behind that effort.

Working together, we can fight back and win. Lives are at stake.

Now is the time to link arms, demand justice, and turn our anger into action!

For equality and justice,

Kim Gandy
President, National Organization for Women
