The Religious Institute is helping people of faith express their support for Planned Parenthood and the health care they provide. We know that stripping access to health care from millions of people is both immoral and hypocritical, yet that is what politicians are trying to do. Please let them know that people of faith support Planned Parenthood.
Here are three ways to take action:
- Sign the faith statement to the Senate opposing TrumpCare.
- Lift up the sacred work of Planned Parenthood in your worship service.
- Write a letter of appreciation to Planned Parenthood.
Share the statement of support and encourage other people of faith to sign.
“I oppose any measures that roll back the expansion of Medicaid, deny coverage to people with pre-existing conditions, restrict coverage for abortion care, or defund Planned Parenthood. My faith teaches me to pursue justice and health for all people.”
Comprehensive, affordable health care including access to Planned Parenthood is a moral imperative by Kentina Washington Leapheart
“For more than fifty years, religious leaders and people of faith played a critical role in helping women get access to safe, affordable reproductive healthcare. The first 100 days of this new administration have been no exception.”
Why This Pastor Supports the Affordable Care Act and Planned Parenthood by Rev. Marie Alford-Harkey
“Denying healthcare to people because they are poor and stripping healthcare from rural communities and communities of color repudiates the teachings and values of most religious traditions. It is certainly a repudiation of the life and teachings of Jesus.”
