Take Action Now

Leaders in the House and the Senate are playing politics with family planning funding and these dangerous antics will have severe consequences for Texas women, families and taxpayers. The Texas Legislature is continuing attacks on women’s health and now the health care for 400,000 Texans is in serious jeopardy. The Texas Legislature is working to slash family planning services and ban Planned Parenthood as a provider.
