today!
AllAboveAll is tracking this and also trying to get people to contact their congress people to support this bill....
I entered info, and it said there was no contact available...my "person" is a rightwing teabagger, so maybe they are really
looking to focus on Democrats??

"The Equal Access to Abortion Coverage in Health Insurance (EACH Woman) Act, introduced today by Congresswoman Barbara Lee (D-CA) and supported by more than 60 Members of Congress, will lift the bans that deny abortion coverage.
This groundbreaking bill ensures that a womans decision about abortion will not be based on how much she earns or how she is insured.
For too long, politicians have used the Hyde Amendment to withhold insurance coverage of abortion and interfere in womens health decisions. A woman who wants to get an abortion but is denied is more likely to fall into poverty than one who can get an abortion.
The EACH Woman Act can change that."
