Advocacy – How To Make Your Voice Count!

Nine out of 10 Americans support access to family planning. An overwhelming majority of Americans believe that the government should not intrude in the personal decision of abortion.

  Despite this, Congress and state legislatures continually make it more difficult for Americans to make responsible choices by attacking family planning, responsible sex education and access to reproductive health.

The Responsible Choices Action Agenda promotes policies to:

• Increase services that prevent unintended pregnancy, including responsible sex education.

• Improve the quality of reproductive health care.

• Ensure access to abortion.
