To: The United States Senate
Action: Our military women need your help!
National Partnership for Women & Families
Service women who are survivors of rape or incest deserve the same reproductive health coverage as the civilians they defend. I urge you to ensure that the amendment sponsored by Senator Jeanne Shaheen is part of the National Defense Authorization Act.
Why is this important?
The service women who defend our country deserve the same insurance coverage for reproductive health services as others who rely on the federal government for their health care. To force service women who suffer rape or incest to pay for abortion care is discriminatory and unjust. The Senate needs to ensure that the amendment sponsored by Senator Jeanne Shaheen is part of the National Defense Authorization Act. Military women deserve the same reproductive health coverage that civilian workers have.
