He just can't seem to keep his sexist, classist, racist idiocy quelled for a minute.
In one of President Bush’s final acts in office, he issued an outrageous new regulation that represents a tremendous step back in women’s access to reproductive-health services, including birth control.
Urge our new President Barack Obama to make it a priority to fix this dangerous regulation once he takes office.
Bush’s regulation could undermine state laws that require hospitals to provide emergency contraception to rape survivors. It could allow health-care corporations to refuse services and referrals for birth control.
And it could hurt low-income women in particular by allowing family-planning and Medicaid providers - even the receptionists at their front desks - to deny contraception services and referrals to women.
President Bush snuck this regulation through at the last moment - a regulation is radically out of step with the way we live, as 98 percent of women use birth control at some point in their lives.
This January, President-elect Obama can reverse this outrageous law - but he needs your support.
