Dear Bridget,
Even as we come together to raise awareness on World Population Day,
women's health continues to be a target for family planning and
reproductive health opponents in Congress. Recently, a bill was
introduced in the House of Representatives that would permanently
eliminate U.S. funding for the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA).
UNFPA is a critical organization working in more than 150 countries to
provide the most vulnerable and marginalized women with healthcare
services.
**UNFPA and women worldwide need your help. Contact your Representative
now to support this vital organization:

UNFPA's programs help women deliver healthy babies and survive
delivery, enable couples to determine the number and spacing of their
children, and prevents the spread of HIV and AIDS and other sexually
transmitted infections. It also promotes gender equality and combats
violence against women.
**The United States helped to establish UNFPA more than forty years ago.
Urge your Representative to stand up for women worldwide by voting
against House Resolution 2059:

With your support, we can protect UNFPA and the women it serves around
the world.
Sincerely,
