Minority Rule in U.S. Congress
The United States Congress allows itself to be bullied by a very small number of voters. Links in the two preceding postings take you to information about the Americans’ overwhelming support of family planning. The most recent describes an organization of Evangelical Christians who argue that family planning is in keeping with their beliefs about the family and the environment. So much for the supposed monolithic opposition to birth control of this religious group. Below that link is an article excerpted from a Rand study that found that a substantial if not overwhelming percent of citizens approve of government support for family planning both here and abroad.
All of us need to call our congressional representatives to account on funding for family planning.
Ann O'Connell
