Email Senate to Protect Servicewomen’s Health

November 22, 2011

Women in the military don’t have insurance coverage for abortion in cases of rape. Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) has introduced an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act that would add rape and incest to life endangerment as the exceptions to the military’s ban on insurance coverage for abortion.

Our women in uniform dedicate their lives to protecting our country—it's time for the law to protect them. Email your senators to urge support for Senator Shaheen’s amendment and compassionate care for servicewomen who have survived rape.
