I never should have gotten out of bed this morning by Melissa at Shakesville
I don't have much to add to the many great posts above, except to point out that this is an issue that, as usual, will affect the most vulnerable women the most. It is not just a feminist issue, but an issue of class, race, sexual orientation, gender identification, and more. It is crucial now to contact your Congressmen and Obama and push them on this issue. Many Democrats are not exactly known for their willingness to take a bold stand on issues of reproductive health.
