Stop already with the defunding of Planned Parenthood, which directly affects women's general healthcare. And stay out of women's decisions regarding their bodies. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you, right? We'll leave your healthcare decisions to you and you leave women's healthcare decisions to the women.
Why is this important?
When I learned while pregnant that my child would have Down Syndrome, my own doctor urged me to have an abortion. I had a choice about the matter. Could my family and I handle having a special needs person in our family? And while I chose to have my beautiful daughter, I am thankful that I had the opportunity to consider abortion for the well-being of my life and family. Women do not need the government interfering in this personal decision. Also, pulling funding from millions of low-income women for healthcare, along with states efforts limiting Medicaid and other healthcare funding IS a war on women.
